[edit] Ellen Whitaker

Young English equestrienne -- I don't think the few local awards mentioned in the article make her notable. No sources cited. Completing incomplete AFD listing. NawlinWiki 17:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

This should have been speedily deleted for wp:nn. It doesn't even make any claims to notibility. Bendž|Ť 17:57, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Comment Actually, it does make claims to notability -- it says she won first and second-place awards in English show-jumping competitions. That prevents this from being speediable. My argument is that the awards are minor and don't make her notable. NawlinWiki 19:22, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

*Delete. Non-notable. Speedy keep per JulesH, assuming he's added the sources to the article? ROGER TALK 18:05, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment Added sources to article, establishing notability. ROGER TALK 09:26, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Does not pass WP:BIO yet. --Charlene 18:29, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, if it had sources my vote would change to keep. Callelinea 19:45, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong keep. Ranked 7th by the British Show Jumping Association for 2005-2006 (I don't have more recent statistics available). Reliable sources include [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]. Additionally, a game marketed using her name is apparently quite popular. JulesH 09:00, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment I have rewritten the page to take into account these sources. JulesH 09:31, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
