[edit] Neleh Dennis

Wikipedia is going to have entries for individual game show contestants, now? Uncle G 19:56, 2005 Jan 17 (UTC)

I figured that because she came in second in a field of sixteen, that this would be an article worthy of Wikipedia. She won challenges at some strategic times when she would have otherwise been eliminated, showing some of the intricacies of this reality gameshow. Val42 20:41, 2005 Jan 17 (UTC)

• Delete. Game show loser. Any intricacies of the game can be covered on the game's article. Niteowlneils 20:53, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
• Delete game show contestants? In an encyclopedia?! Come on. Ken Jennings and that guy who inspired the movie Quiz Show, maybe. The rest of the lot can take a hike. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 21:14, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete on the basis that it's a bad precedent. There have been thousands of game show contestents (reality and panel format), and being one isn't a measure of notoriety unless you become newsworthy such as Ken Jennings or Charles Van Doren, or the guy who won the first Survivor (or someone like Dr. Joyce Brothers who made their first public appearances as game show contestents.). If kept, I don't see the point in retaining the LDS references. 23skidoo 22:51, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, borderline notable but this article will set a bad precedent, un-encyclopaedic. Megan1967 00:46, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
