Articles for Notability Review (ANR) is where Wikipedians discuss whether a controversial article should be judged as notable or non-notable. This Articles listed here are debated for as long as it takes to get consensus. The article is then moved out of the Category:Articles with topics of unclear notability by either replacing the {{Notability}} or {{Importance}} tags with a more appropriate tag (such as {{expand}}), or by sending the article to the Articles for Deletion debates. Please note: this is NOT an AfD discussion; this is to see if the article is notable or non-notable.
Please feel free to nominate any article with no opinion on the nomination. The Wikipedians will discuss and eventually form a consensus.
We must also ask that no administrator intervention take place here. Remember: this is not an AfD debate.

[edit] Sharron Storer
- – (View ANR)
This article is semi-notable, the event was widely televised, but that is all that would make Storer notable. Diez2 16:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
- Non-notable. The article should be about the incident itself, if one is needed at all. I think there are also privacy issues; if I say something critical to President Bush will a WP article be written about me and my family? I don't think that is what WP should be about.

- I'm not saying she is notable, but the notability she has isn't that she said something critical about about Blair, it's that she said something critical about Blair which was "widely-televised".--Nonpareility 20:06, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] How to file an ANR
