[edit] The lady in black

This does not seem to have any real encyclopedic value. Delete Dabbler 28 June 2005 12:46 (UTC)

• Delete - Right now, this is unverifiable; a citation to a print source that indicates that it's more than just one person's or a very local story would be needed. Other uses of "lady in black", courtesy of google, include 1) a different myth around Fort Warren, near Boston, 2) a Uriah Heep album, 3) a species of Aster, 4) a 1987 Hong Kong movie, and 5) some sort of fiction having to do with NASCAR auto racing that I don't get. So delete, unless someone rewrites into a disambiguation, or picks a reasonable redirect. CDC (talk) 28 June 2005 14:25 (UTC)
  • Keep - I've rewritten this to a disambig as I outlined above - and also moved to to Lady in Black. I just want to put in a plug here for Clusty, a search engine which does a great job when I'm looking at multiple meanings of a phrase. CDC (talk) 3 July 2005 17:44 (UTC)

• The NASCAR reference is simply that "The Lady in Black" is used as the nickname for Darlington (South Carolina) Raceway, often considered the circuit's most difficult track to master. That one's not very notable outside its niche, but has been used in advertising and media coverage for decades. Disambiguate per CDC; unless there's verification, we don't need to keep any of the current content. Barno 28 June 2005 14:51 (UTC)
