Oppose nomination, one of Ireland’s best-known environmental activists. As clearly evidenced by the activities outline in the article. Bye-election outcome irrelevant. The article needs work - there is an odd style and order, and referencing could be better - but I could find a thousand more valid targets for AfD without much effort, and I am, at minimum, puzzled by this hardly-explained nomination.SeoR (talk) 10:29, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - the subject, further checked since initial comment (formatting moved from Oppose opening to Keep !vote), remains clearly notable. This nomination, by a new account which has done no other editing, is not explained, including with any reference to policies. I will commit to some article improvement tonight / tomorrow.SeoR (talk) 11:17, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The subject is literally one of the first photos that appears in Google's one-box for the search environmentalist Ireland. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Slackr (talk • contribs) 13:05, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and improve - Subject of this article is notable under WP:GNG. The nominating OP has made three edits on WP, their first being the deletion nom, the other two related to the nom. It seems they did not do a WP:BEFORE. Netherzone (talk) 14:30, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This seems like a drive-by nomination by an inexperienced editor with just 3 edits. Dubsky is, in fact, a well known Irish environmentalist for several years and the fact she was not elected is not a good enough reason to delete. Well sourced short article verifies notability. ww2censor (talk) 17:45, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Late to the party again, but a solid keep. scope_creep^Talk 11:58, 2 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:SleepyGary, Next time please to the WP:BEFORE dude. There is huge coverage in the Times, Observer, BBC, Financial Times, The Guardian, years before her political career started. scope_creep^Talk 09:14, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I see plenty of good sources that name her in the headline or lead. Bearian (talk) 15:55, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
