Likely hoax. Only source is a blog which is more suspect than normal blogs. There are 16 Gbooks hits, none of which is this particular one. Google search wasn't productive as there were too many with the same name, but in context of the French revolution, nothing related to this particular person. Was prodded by Blanchardb and DGG and the page creator removed the PRODs without addressing any of the issues. Strong Delete SpacemanSpiff (talk) 02:06, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

• Comment. The blog post was after this article was created, so while I wanted to speedy tag this as G3, I decided against doing so because of the contested PROD. -SpacemanSpiff (talk) 02:09, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
• Comment. Stephanie Poole was a small-town Scottish hero. Her family is just bringing to light her martyrdom with her soon-to-be-publicated diary. This page deserves to be saved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jumpin4jamie (talk • contribs) — Jumpin4jamie (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • The diary hasn't been published yet, much less been the subject of historical analysis. Wait some time after publication. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 04:08, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
• Delete as prodder. The article states that no additional facts are known about her, which is by itself a strong deletion argument for someone who was merely a soldier. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 03:39, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
• Delete per Blanchardb. No reliable sources are known to exist yet. Even assuming the article is true, not enough information has been provided to establish her notability. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:59, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
• I have thoroughly reviewed said information about Stephanie Poole and have come to a conclusion, she was a legitamate person. Upon that website cited I contacted said family member of her's and had an extensive conversation about the topic. The diary will be published and that website is a reliable source. It appears to be a blog because of improper funding to the family and they are not able to buy the domain to make it seem more real. I believe this article should not be deleted. -Wikiwikiwhattt --Wikiwikiwhattt (talk) 27 June 2009 — Wikiwikiwhattt (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• Speedy deleting and invoking both WP:BOLD and WP:SNOW as a hoax both here and on that phony blog. Blocking the user as well. This individual has already wasted enough valuable volunteer time with this nonsense. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 17:07, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
