[edit] Jean Case

When clearing the C:CSD backlog noticed the CSD A7 (aka {{db-bio}}) tagged was contested via {{hangon}}, thus I then prodded accordingly. Prod contested via my talk page as per:

Can you please review my revisions and discussion on the Jean Case page that you tagged for deletion? I am happy to make additional changes if you think they are warranted, but I removed many links and made the page more factual and straightforward biographical information. As a comparison, Kate Carr, the head of a brain cancer organization, has a page that's very similar, that wasn't tagged for deletion. What is the difference? I would say that Jean Case is a more notable figure as a philanthropist and former business executive, and the format of her bio is very similar.Mmiller20910, 11 October 15:55 (UTC)

So, here we are! I've done some google checks (will provide links when I have a spare mo) and I cant really ascertain any notability at all, but, throwing the ball into the consensus court as per policy.

• Extremely strong keep: Wife of Steve Case, Bush appointee, head of a notable charitable soundation and works closely with the first lady. One of the links is a Time magazine article she co-wrote with Laura Bush and Bill Clinton! I can't believe this was AfDed! Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:41, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Just following deletion policy, remomber it was tagged non-notable speedy deletion. If others agree (or when I actally look) it cold well speedy keep... and hey, at least the system works! Glen 23:16, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, I understand why it was nommed, since the prod-removal explantion didn't do much to make her sound notable. But she's notable all the same. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:22, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. A Google News Archive search for "Jean Case" AOL comes up with 25 hits so she seems notable enough for mine. [1] If not, merge with Steve Case. Capitalistroadster 03:09, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Extremely Strong Keep As a Presidential appointee and chair of a Presidential council who is referenced in other Wikipedia articles, it doesn't make sense to deny folks further information on Jean Case Vandemans 16:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
