The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to ABC Radio Grandstand. Despite the low participation in this debate, there seems to be reasonable agreement that notability (especially for a stand-alone article) is lacking. Randykitty (talk) 17:50, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLP, but no slanderous content. More of a WP:NBIO concern, really - the only things that stands out is that she was (presumably, this is not worded very clearly) part of the team that won a relatively major Australian journalistic award, the Walkley Awards. But this is unreferenced, the Walkey webste does not mention her name ([1]), the award was to the "ABC Radio Newcastle Team" and as such WP:NOTINHERITED is an issue. Even AGF that she was part of the team, it is likely such a team is well over a dozen people, it's not like co-winning a Nobel Prize. I don't think even if verified that would be sufficient to make her notable. And this is of course on top of the 'unreferenced BLP' issue, through this technicality can be fixed with a bit of effort, presumably. Thoughts? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:27, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Soft keep Notability seems to mostly come from the SMH article about her leaving Grandstand, with an article about a different journo describing her in passing as a "trailblazer" for women in sports broadcasting, and the Walkley for covering the Newcastle storms (shared between 20 people). These references have been added to the article. Spacepine (talk) 04:25, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect and merge to ABC Radio Grandstand, which would benefit from a bit more information about each presenter, from where the subject is missing at the moment. Merge in one or two due weight sentences. Not notable in their own right, but does deserve some content in the appropriate place. Aoziwe (talk) 09:32, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
