[edit] Christine Lund

Christine Lund (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Appears to be an article about a TV news anchor for a local Los Angeles news channel. Not sure if this meets notability standards or not. P.B. Pilhet / Talk 23:18, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

• Question: Why did this go to AfD within only a few minutes of this article's creation [1] and not even prodded? --Oakshade 15:51, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete not notable. --MECU≈talk 03:25, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep Legendary ABC affiliate achorperson in Los Angeles and Southern California. Was opposite Jerry Dunphy for much of her career. Winner of numerous awards including at least one Emmy - [2] and a Genesis Award - [3] . Here's a whole bunch of Los Angeles Times articles about her - free registration is required, but you can see in the free previews that she's the primary subject of these stories [4][5][6][7]. A Daily Variety article about her retiring here [8]. And according to some sources, she was the inspiration for Christina Applegate's character in Anchorman [9]. --Oakshade 05:57, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• Update some of the above refs have been inserted into the article, plus further expansion. --Oakshade 06:14, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Sources found by Oakshade indicate sufficient notability. Sandstein 22:43, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep. The listing of television personalities in Los Angeles is incomplete as is, e.g., Stan Chambers of KTLA who was an early live on-air broadcaster when everything was in black and white.T.E. Goodwin 23:36, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Stan Chambers does have an article. It could use some Wikifying. --Oakshade 03:01, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
