Tagged for notability since 2010. Seems mostly known for being related to other people. Fails WP:GNG. UtherSRG (talk) 16:25, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete agree with nom - the 'notability' seems to be inherited through subject's relatives Karnataka (talk) 18:03, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Windsor Beauties#List of Beauties - I have not been able to find any significant coverage apart from Wikipedia mirrors. Her main claim to notability seems to be her Windsor Beauties portrait, so it would be an apt target for redirection. Some minor additional info about her may be added as long as it is within scope there and sourced. ~UN6892 tc 18:23, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep, otherwise redirect to Windsor Beauties#List of Beauties per Username6892. I'm not familiar with The Fair Ladies of Hampton Court but it was at least published by a major publisher (Little, Brown & Co.) and gives the appearance of representing fairly thorough and sober research. It devotes five pages to a biography of Brooke, which seems like very substantial coverage to me. And then there's this approximately one-page note in Notes and Queries by William Francis Prideaux, a biographical researcher of some note in his day. Add in the lesser coverage to be found here and there and I think there's a reasonable amount of encyclopedic material to work with. (And to the extent this might still be a borderline case under NBASIC, while Dryden is certainly not a reliable source, such an indicator of contemporary significance should IMO weigh somewhat in favor of an article.) -- Visviva (talk) 02:54, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
