Mayilamma

Non notable person, no significant contributions either, news reports about a single event Googlean (talk) 11:25, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Although I do understand your concerns about the singularity of her purported notability, there seems to be quite a bit of verifiable and reliable press coverage about this person. A Google search brings up close to 600 hits, a lot of those qualifying under WP:RS. The news articles are not only from Indian sources such as [1] but there are also North American articles ([2]), Swedish ([3]), Arabic ([4]) and others. I think this is enough to prove general notability and expand the article accordingly. SWik78 (talk • contribs) 15:17, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment (nominator) - She has become somewhat notable only through her protest against Coca-Cola, seems notable about a single event per WP:NOBJ. Therefore, there is no point of keeping an independent article at this stage. It may be redirected or state the event in Criticism of Coca-Cola or Coca-Cola. --Googlean (talk) 04:21, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

Keep. The sources found by SWik78, plus others found by Google News and Google Books searches show clear notability. This isn't someone who was caught up in a news event - she led a continuing campaign. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:18, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
