[edit] Jessica Elway

Delete. As the daughter of John Elway, she has not done anything herself notable enough to be included. The mention of her speech could be merged with (or just added to, because Delete and Merge is invalid) her father's article. Icelight 15:52, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

Abstain This really sounds like a vanity page, written by her or someone else. However, she is John Elway's daughter. I don't really know where you could go with this article though. -- BMIComp (talk, HOWS MY DRIVING) 15:54, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

• Weak keep Her father should not be the focus of the article, she should. She's a notable college basketball player -Harmil 16:42, 21 July 2005 (UTC) On further review, it seems she's not as notable as I thought, and still a freshman. A lot is made of her potential, mostly because of who her father is, but I'm on the fence as to whether press coverage like this: [1] really indicates that she's notable or not... at the least, she gets a few mentions on google, and her stats are tracked nationally. If her hand recovers, she'll be notable as a college ball player. -Harmil 16:52, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• Weak delete - I thought being notable only for being related to someone notable was a deletion criteria, but I can't seem to find it. As soon as she's done something notable besides being born, we can recreate the entry. -- Plutor 18:10, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to John Elway per other precedents on the offspring of the famous. Xoloz 04:46, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Family members of celebrities are not inherently notable. --Angr/_{t?k t? mi} 05:32, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, just the daughter of someone famous. How many thousands of those are there? -R. fiend 15:28, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, notability is not genetic. -Splash 18:14, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep is expanded, as per User:Harmil. JamesBurns 03:07, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

• Strong Keep as per her introduction of her father at the Hall of Fame was the first ever time a woman had introduced a player at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. That is significant for women's rights, and do you people want to say you don't support women's rights?
