Kellie Lim[edit]

This person is really not notable. Just because some TV show had them on as an inspiring person really doesn't mean anything. She has not made any major contributions to the medical field, has not written anything, and seems not even to be a leading crusader for the disabled. If we list her we then should list every amputee due to bacterial meningitis because they are an inspiring person of just about the same notability. Do we need bios for every person who had a feel good fluff piece done on TV news about them? No. Your Radio Enemy (talk) 15:41, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment this is the nom's third attempt at getting this deleted. I declined the PROD because she was honored by ABC as Person of the Week in June 2007 and think it should be discussed. I worked on this article when I found it in the backlog, I have no personal attachment to the article or whether it stays or goes. TravellingCari 16:30, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Notability asserted, nationwide coverage. JFW | T@lk 17:56, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sources clearly meet WP:N and exceed its requirements by a bunch. Nom gives no other reason for deletion other than "importance" (which I'll read as notability) Keep Hobit (talk) 18:31, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Person of the week does not make her notable at all. RogueNinja_talk 20:24, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's debatable, but the sources clearly do. And they seem to be fine sources. Hobit (talk) 20:33, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This much news coverage is sufficient for notability. ABC as Person of the Week is perhaps enough of a distinction by itself. DGG (talk) 15:14, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
