[edit] Jo Wiltshire

Jo Wiltshire (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

I declined the A7 on this because of the awards she won. Editor who submitted the A7 asked me to do the AFD on it as he/she is unfamiliar with the process. As it stands, with no reliable sources, the notability that it "asserts" isn't enough to meet the notability requirements set forth by WP:BIO. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 21:51, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom as well. I'm the guy who tagged this for the A7, especially after seeing the vanity press nanostub left by the same user. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 02:42, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. Looks like a monster case of self-promotion. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 17:56, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. I believe it would be prudent to re-examine this matter. The "Prince's Trust" is certainly a notable organization. If she has worn the cited award (as appears likely from the references cited in the article), that would be enough to establish notability. The author is not published by a vanity press, as one editor contends, but by a small publisher affiliated with Random House. [1]. Minos P. Dautrieve (talk) 18:34, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak keep Notability is asserted and backed up by references, and with some re-writing and tidy-up, I think the article could be acceptable to keep. However, the dangers of COI and POV need to be borne in mind, especially by the creator of the article if she is also its subject. -- MightyWarrior (talk) 19:49, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment The related article Sneaky Parenting - Smart Shortcuts to Happy Families is probably not notable (except by association with the author) and ought to be deleted. -- MightyWarrior (talk) 19:52, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
