[edit] Miss Alli
One of the founders of the website Television Without Pity was previously ruled not notable enough for an entry here; using that reasoning, I don't believe a recapper at the site should be either. Qaqaq 17:30, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Non-notable webmistress with little exposure outside of her website. Her reign of terror ends there. --Madchester 23:24, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I used to read her Big Brother recaps. Very funny lady. Of course she isn't getting an article here, though. Mike H (Talking is hot) 14:54, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- Comment What was the rationale for deleting one of TWoP's founders? There are articles for founders of sites such as Kuro5hin, Ain't it Cool News and Metafilter. In terms of notability, TWoP should be at least comparable to those.
- Miss Alli did not found TWoP. That would be Sars, Glark, and Wing Chun (and I believe one of those three came along later). Mike H (Talking is hot) 17:32, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- I know that, but one of User:Qaqaq's reasons for deletion is that an article on a TWoP founder was also deleted. I'd like to know why.

- Comment I wasn't part of the vote, but a page for Glark was eliminated within the last few months; I believe non-notability was the reason. Qaqaq 18:18, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- Not non-notability per se, but the fact that they didn't write it about the person, but rather "Glark," the screen name, and that was a big factor in why it was deleted. Mike H (Talking is hot) 18:19, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- That's pretty actionable. They don't exactly keep their names secret. It could probably be found by a couple of quick Google searches. Miss Alli, for example, is named Linda Holmes.
- I'd still vote to delete Linda Holmes, because she's a person who writes recaps at a website. I don't find it notable, even though you do (and don't even sign your posts, at that). Mike H (Talking is hot) 18:34, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- Easy there. I didn't vote on this. I haven't argued for keeping Miss Alli and I'm not that fussed about what happens to this page. I was just asking about the deletion of an article on a TWoP founder.
- Sorry about that, then. But yeah, that's why it was deleted, from what I read. There was an argument about "why do we write articles on screen names?" "No! Let's delete!" Mike H (Talking is hot) 18:56, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it. Thanks for the info. BTW, is there any way of getting an article like Glark undeleted?

- Comment. Online personalities like Maddox or Harry Knowles actually have some mainstream prevalence beyond the internet community. Miss Alli has little notriety outside her inner circle. --Madchester 23:30, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
