[edit] Susie frankeberger

This stub was tagged nn-bio, but it does contain a claim of notability... so I brought it here. Abstain. PJM 06:06, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• Comment. Here's what I've found on the subject: [1]. PJM 06:15, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Speed delete I'm not seeing any claim of notability here. I quote in extenso: Susie Frankeberger is a television news reporter who currently works with CBS affiliate KGPE, Channel 47 in Fresno, California. OK to delete slowly I suppose. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:09, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per original tagging and per Geogre's law. — FREAK OF NUR_xTURE (TALK) 09:41, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. I hate to seem contentious among good people, but I am surprised neither of you think that an article which states the subject is a TV news reporter for a CBS affiliate has no claim of notability. Also, please fill me in on "Geogre's law". PJM 15:02, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: Joe Haynes of KTBS might be the most obnoxious weatherman ever, but I don't think he's article-worthy either. If the subject was a contributor for "60 Minutes" for example, I'd say keep. Barring extraordinary circumstances, newspersons for local network affiliates are notable to about one-third the population of their respective viewing areas at best. That's pretty narrow, in the scheme of things. Geogre's law can be found at Wikipedia:Glossary#G. — FREAK OF NUR_xTURE (TALK) 15:21, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

I agree with much of what you say, but I still think this stub makes a claim of notability - perhaps not a strong enough claim to earn a stay, but a claim nonetheless. In my view, the nn-bio speedy tag should be used for articles that don't make any sort of claim whatsoever. Geogre's law is a very interesting one, but I've seen a few cases, like this: [2], where it doesn't hold up. PJM 15:56, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep - If she's a reporter on TV I'm inclined to say keep it. She's probably seen by hundreds of thousands of television watchers in her area on a fairly regular basis. By contrast, some of the other Wikipedia articles refer to towns or places that barely anyone visits. --Cyde Weys _talk^contribs 20:16, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Well known and may have won awards. -- JJay 18:17, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
