[edit] Valerie Rockefeller Wayne

Was prodded prod was removed by a annon listing here. Being the daughter of a US senator or being a member of the Rockefeller family does not by default merit inclusion in Wikipedia. Whispering 07:10, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Being the descendant of a notable figure doesn't automatically make you notable. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 09:08, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per my initial prod. Being a "Rockefeller" does not alone merit inclusion. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 12:06, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Not even notable in WV. --DarkAudit 13:37, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I had put a prod 2 on it. I continue to believe that there is no assertion of notability. GRBerry 02:08, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - not notable.--A. B. 03:59, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
• Retain - It is better to know a thing than not to know it. It seems silly to restrict knowledge on the basis that some users don't particularly appreciate the subject's importance. And the number of entries praying for deletion (six in just two days) seems to indicate a bias against Valeire Rockefeller Wayne rather than advocacy for Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.12.189.8 (talk • contribs)

Note: new editor with just 5 edits, all to Rockefeller-related articles.

I don't know Ms. Rockefeller and have no particular bias against her. Wikipedia has standards for notability (see WP:N) -- either change these standards (pretty unlikely) or prove Ms. Rockefeller's notability per these standards. In the meantime, I'm just voting by the rules. I suspect most, if not all of the other 5 are driven by the same motives. --A. B. 15:44, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
