Delete Person of very little importance Spotteddogsdotorg 18:40, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete Do we need every damn airhead anchor from podunk's bio here? No! Hohokus 23:19, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Account created 9 Jun 2005 and mostly used for VfD votes. Kaibabsquirrel 00:15, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Local TV gal in small market - not notable! Melvis 17:30, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete WHO? Not notable! Next! ShureMicGuy 19:07, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Account created today, all edits are to VfD. RickK 23:00, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak delete. An actual informative article of a large city (Philadelphia is not podunk) tv anchor might earn a weak keep from me as mostly harmless, but the definition-like stublet does not. -- Infrogmation 02:38, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete: A fact, not an article. As for the notability of news readers from mid-market cities, I, personally, would not think them tremendously significant, as they change rapidly and move even more rapidly. A local institution in mid-market media might be alright. Geogre 03:05, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, passes WP:BIO. Kappa 04:58, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Delete. Does not pass WP:BIO. RickK 22:27, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)
      • Keep, passes WP:BIO. Has "a total audience of 5,000 or more" as an anchor for an NBC affiliate in a city with a metropolitan population of nearly 6,000,000. -- Jonel 23:36, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
      • Comment: The person is the consumer alert reporter and is an anchor, not the anchor. At local stations, just about everyone anchors for some amount of time (the weekend anchor, the weekend daytime anchor, etc.). Geogre 02:29, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
        • Comment: This person is the anchor of the weekday 5 p.m. newscast. -- Jonel 03:21, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, significant enough. astiquetalk 05:21, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, does not pass WP:BIO. She's neither a "widely recognized entertainment personality" nor a "well-known entertainment figure". Nobody outside Philadelphia is likely to have heard of her, and I'd guess that many residents of the city wouldn't recognize her name. --Smack (talk) 05:33, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Television personalities from major cities are notable enough for mine. Capitalistroadster 05:35, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. Has some notability. JamesBurns 05:53, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete I don't see a local TV personality as being notable in most cases. --Xcali 06:00, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Seems to be notable enough for me. And she would be "widely recognised" and "well known" in Philadelphia. Leithp 10:24, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Just because someone is on TV in one city on one station doesn't mean that they are "widely recognised" and "well known" even in their own city, let alone their own country. They have done no national TV work, so they are still not notable, which is why I still say Delete! Spotteddogsdotorg 14:53, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as Kappa Celestianpower talk02:31, Tuesday 8th October, 2024 (UTC)
  • Keep SchmuckyTheCat 16:16, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Asa Aarons wannabe in a small city big deal. ConeyCyclone 17:24, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Account created earlier today and mostly used for VfD votes. Kaibabsquirrel 00:15, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep This is from the same user who writes about many New York City-based tv news personalities and executives, but derides those from "lesser" stations in major markets. And by looking at the nominator's reasoning, I suppose everyone knows who Diane Doctor is. ErikNY 18:58, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • COMMENT What the above user calls "New York City-based tv news personalities and executives" are nationally known people who meet many of the WP:BIO criteria or are seen nationally on programs. If we use ErikNY's reasoning we should just ignore people like Peter Jennings and Roone Arledge would fall into that category. The broadcasts of the various New York televison stations are seen through much of the United States, the Carribean and Latin America, unlike Ms. Davidson, who is only seen in a very small area by comparison. Also, in the case of say Jim Vance or Sue Simmons who are pioneering African-American news anchors, so they would warrant entries, but Ms. Davidson a thirty something airhead blonde cookie cutter anchorette. She doesn't need one until she becomes more notable or moves on to a national broadcast. Spotteddogsdotorg 23:04, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete doesn't meet WP:BIO guidelines. You may argue that she is a "Well known entertainment figure", but being known in one city doesn't seem to do that. Toasthaven 22:47, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
      • Keep, passes WP:BIO. It's the Internet! Keeping this item costs nothing and may be helpful
  • Keep. Philly is a big market; notable. Kaibabsquirrel 00:15, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Mike H 02:07, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment - Added information about her Mid-Atlantic region Emmy Awards. Maintain my keep vote. -- Jonel 03:43, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Anchor and host in a large city. Notable enough. Sjakkalle (Check!) 06:54, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Article does not establish sufficent notability. Gamaliel 06:57, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. This article is still a stub, so it does serve its purpose. AdamTheHun 15:44, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep The Philadelphia broadcast area is large enough that "notable there" is "notable enough". --Unfocused 16:33, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Pressure to dilute WP:BIO is sad, but perhaps inevitable. The size of the Philadelphia market is irrelevant as local TV news hacks are generally not notable. They change jobs frequently and have no cultural significance. Typically they are entirely interchangable. Quale 21:05, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Delete I am fairly new here and just stumbled on to these deletion pages but she doesn't seem that noteworthy, as most local TV personalities are. They are like tires, very easly swapped and basically identical! UncleFloyd 19:31, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
