[edit] Rachael Bell

A girl who made the news for throwing a party that caused damage to her house. True, the event received news coverage, but nothing else has come from it since. 15 minutes of fame are over. Jmlk17 22:51, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, utterly without significance. --Dhartung | Talk 23:10, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per the policy WP:NOT#NEWS and the essay WP:NOTNEWS. Also appears to run contrary to WP:BLP1E. hat said, she expected "only 60" teens to attend a party when the parents were absent, but was surprised when it turned into a yob-a-palooza? The most surprising thing is that 7 police cars arrived in the midst of the event and the officers did nothing to stop it. No prejudice against recreating if it somehow gains a higher significance than one-off mischief. Agree with the "15 minutes of fame" comment by Jmlk17. Not every "water-cooler story" which gets a splash of publicity deserves an encyclopedia article forever. Edison (talk) 23:47, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Looks like a textbook example of what WP:BLP1E was written for.--Cube lurker (talk) 00:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong delete. In no way is she worth a biography per WP:BLP1E and the event of the house-trashing is not encyclopedic information per WP:NOT#NEWS. Alternatively transwiki to Wikinews if this has not been done so already, but it's old news so may not be suitable for them... I don't know much about Wikinews's policies and guidelines.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 03:31, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
