• Oppose- its already been on AFD and the consensus was to keep. Perhaps you should have looked at the talk page before nominating. Astrotrain 18:46, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy keep - girlfriends of royalty, especially those who receive extensive media exposure, are inherently notable. This article can be condensed a little - we don't really need to know her grades. 23skidoo 19:11, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• definately keep her media exposure has been to big to ignore - fdewaele 21:16, 18 October 2005 (CET)

• Comment. I was obviously aware of the previous Vfd as I had to move it to make way for this one. It was 6 months ago. If you take much more away from the article there will be nothing left other than unfounded speculation that should not be in an encyclopedia. I must admit it being such a crummy article did affect my decision to have it Vfd'd again, and I would oppose a speedy keep, SqueakBox 19:22, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep She was mentioned on the BBC national radio news this evening. Millions of people have heard of her, and doubtless some of them will look her up. This is the sort of topic which Wikipedia should be able to cover better than traditional sources. CalJW 20:53, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, media exposure makes her notable. Thue | talk 22:30, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, for the reasons given above and (1) so that it won't have to be created again; and (2) toward a "keep" result so that further VfD efforts will be less likely. -Acjelen 22:50, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per others: ongoing romantic relationship with second in line to British throne = notable. Haeleth 22:51, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy keep and in the future please do not move existing AfD/VfD archives; simply create a new one and append the string "(2nd nomination)" to the end. Moving these pages leads to confusion and invalidates existing links to previous discussions. Hall Monitor 22:53, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as longterm girlfriend of heir to the British throne. There are 45,400 hits for a search on "Kate Middleton" many of which relate to her. [1] Fortyone articles on Google news reflecting her current high profile. Capitalistroadster 01:00, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep for reasons cited by others. This woman is very well-known. Crypticfirefly 04:34, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep She is very well known among all broadsheet newspapers, etc. Blnguyen 05:44, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
