[edit] Natalie Rogers

Natalie Rogers (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Contested speedy, then prod. Non-notable person. All Google hits are either links to booksellers carrying her books, her own sites or sites of those with whom she is directly associated. Ties to several organizations listed which don't have their own articles. Author attempts to assert notability because "she has also admirably carried on the legacy of her father Carl Rogers" (from edit summary), but notability is not often inherited. No reliable outside sources given. Article seems to be more to promote Ms. Rogers, especially given original author's glowing remarks in edit summaries. Many publications listed appear to be self-published, though I can't verify that. I just don't think she meets notability standards, and this article exists largely to promote her.

• Weak Delete She really hasnt done anything notable outside her trade-publications Corpx 19:42, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete: Fails WP:BIO at present (no independent, reliable secondary sources demonstrating notability, and notability of her father is not inherited). However, the article is quite new; if such independent, reliable secondary sources turn up by the end of the AfD, I'll change my opinion. MastCell ^Talk 20:25, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 15:51, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
• Based on the information currently in the article, she doesn't appear to be particularly notable, and I'm concerned that this article may become a WP:COATRACK on which to hang a lot of the article's redlinked educational programs and organizations. (Perhaps the first stone of a walled garden?) TenOfAllTrades(talk) 16:10, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
