Aimee Osbourne

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I'm initiating this discussion based on a request via OTRS (confirmation:). Concerns have been raised regarding privacy issues and limited notability. Though she is related to people who are famous, she personally lives a very private life. The article primarily talks about her famous family members and the projects that her family members have been involved with. The items written about the things she has done are not significant enough to warrant a public biography. A redirect to the "Marriages and family" section of the Ozzy Osbourne article would be sufficient coverage as notability is not inherited. Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 16:47, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Subject has been quite clear in the past that she does not want publicity, forgoing any attention on the family's various reality efforts. A simple request that should be respected with a locked redirect as suggested above.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 17:28, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Must as I respect her desire for privacy, the fact that Aimee Osbourne has voluntarily appeared in a television show (other than about the Osbournes) and writes for a published magazine makes her a public figure. Deletion should be based on the merits of her notability, rather than her desire for privacy. Most of the information in the article appears to be cited. Regards, RJH (talk) 19:11, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong keep - Notability is not inherited, but Amiee Osbourne does have significant coverage in her own right; there are at least three reliable sources in the article which establish this, , . Of course, we must respect privacy; this does not prohibit the article's existence. Our BLP policy has extensive guidance on this issue - if this is followed, we shouldn't have a problem. She is notable and we can make sure that we adhere to BLP. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 19:28, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable. Notability requires significant coverage.  Appearing on television is not notability.  Cusop Dingle (talk) 21:24, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete The existence of articles about the fact that she does not like people writing about her does not constitute significant coverage. It merely demonstrates that she is of interest because she is related to notable people, and there is nothing in the article to demonstrate notability otherwise. WP does not have articles about everyone who occasionally appears on television or writes for magazines - the threshold of notability is very high for these. --AJHingston (talk) 00:45, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Article is sourced. Portillo (talk) 05:49, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Per WP:NOTINHERITED which states: "Family members of celebrities (...) only have their own independent article if and when it can be reliably sourced that they have done something significant and notable in their own right, and would thereby merit an independent article even if they didn't have a famous relative. Note that this also includes newborn babies of celebrities: although such births typically receive a flurry of press coverage, this testifies to the notability of the parent, not the child.". I can't find any source about her doing "something significant and notable in (her) own right".
 * For the three sources ItsZippy posted above, all are related to the show The Osbournes and mostly Sharon Osbourne's comments. The same way, Camille Cosby has given a lot of interviews, including to Oprah, but this doesn't mean she is immediately notable because all of her interviews are directly about Bill Cosby. So, I think the relevant content can be added to the article The Osbournes. Nimuaq (talk) 03:26, 16 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete per Nimuaq. Ironically, most of the cited references are about her desire not to be notable! She refused to be part of the family show and has "broken her silence... a handful of times" - to talk about her family! Let this woman have her privacy, there is nothing on the record that compels us to have an article about her. --MelanieN (talk) 20:29, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
