Elsie
I nearly marked Elsie Wright as nn-bio (indeed I am still dubious about her) but if you want the article to stay, you must establish her notability explicitly in the first paragraph. A vague reference to "famous photographs" is not good enough. -- RHaworth 20:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Nihilartikel
We already have an article on the Cottingley Fairies. There is no need to attempt to carry off the hoax once again. Chick Bowen 00:27, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Chick, your wording suggests that you may be missing the point: there was no attempt to "carry off the hoax". The fairies were a very well known historical hoax and as such are fully entitled to be written up in Wikipedia as such. However ... Guinevere, I agree with Chick's decision to redirect. Your article was rather too chatty, Elsie's notability as a person in her own right is questionable and, most importantly, despite my note above, you had made no attempt to establish the context - you could not even manage to link to the fairies' article (or spell Cottingley correctly)! But please add you stuff to the Cottingley website. -- RHaworth 19:17, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
