This person does not appear to be WP:NOTABLE. DexDor (talk) 06:23, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Amongst the Dukes of Buccleuch and the Gilmour baronetcy notability is strongly inherited. Thincat (talk) 09:52, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever we decide to do with this lady shouldn't involve using the "delete" button. If she's proved notable than the article can be retained, and if not it should be merged and redirected to one of the two articles Thincat links above. In no case should it be deleted because of our policy about alternatives to deletion.—S Marshall T/C 12:14, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, of course S Marshall is right about not losing the information or any redirect. I had wondered about merging to her husband's article[1] (a bit like Gert and Daisy!) but that seems invidious and is probably against some guideline I don't know about.

Merge to article on husband, this woman is entirely non-notable in her own right.TheLongTone (talk) 21:39, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Minor notability but notability all the same, was sufficiently notable to be selected to launch HMS Cardiff. Agree the content shouldn't be lost. Wee Curry Monster talk 21:58, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to article on husband. Her husband was Secretary of State for Defence at the time, so I don't think her launching HMS Cardiff reflects any independent notability on her part. Neljack (talk) 07:56, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to her husband. Not independently notable. She was no doubt asked to launch the ship because of who her husband was. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:16, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
