Proposed article for deletion[edit]

While Ms. Fallin gained some notoriety for her recent marriage subsequent to an annulment, her annulment and marriage seem to be her only basis for notoriety. The fact that Ms. Fallin is a governor's daughter doesn't especially distinguish her--many the vast majority of politicians' children don't have Wikipedia entries, even those with the same or similar qualifications as Ms. Fallin (i.e., a lawyer, lobbyist, etc).

TulsaCatholic violates the talk page guidelines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Talk_page_guidelines):
"Article talk pages should not be used by editors as platforms for their personal views on a subject."
"Article talk pages should be used to discuss ways to improve an article; not to criticize, pick apart, or vent about the current status of an article or its subject. This is especially true on the talk pages of biographies of living people."
"Talk pages are not a forum for editors to argue their personal point of view about a controversial issue. They are a forum to discuss how the points of view of reliable sources should be included in the article, so that the end result is neutral."

OK. This is just article maintenance. The article on Ms. Fallin is pretty bare-bones and needs a lot of work. If we're to improve this article, it would be beneficial to find links to her artwork, information on who Ms. Fallin lobbied for prior to her mother's election, etc. Currently the only notoriety Ms. Fallin has outside of her personal life is an appearance in a magazine photo spread. I'll go back and check a few places for information to add here, but this article needs to be more workable. I'll add a flag on the top here to indicate the need for more substantial information, etc. TulsaCatholic (talk) 19:13, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The time may have long since passed to say it, but there was nothing wrong with TulsaCatholic's post - questioning whether an article should exist or not is legitimate comment. It was actually the Wikipedia:Single-purpose account Tulsaathiest response that was misusing the talk page. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 18:01, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oh the pain..[edit]

Keep it pains me to say keep, it also pains me to know that Americans are so foolishly stupid that they interested in this fool. The fact that Americans are foolish provides positive proof of her notability. It is a sad day in America and on Wikipeida. Detrimentally notable she is--Star Log, Lfrankblam, Kirk Out (talk) 08:07, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
