Anna Thompson Dodge
Article does not show what this woman accomplished that was "notable," pursuant to the guidelines of WP:ANYBIO. Gattosby (talk) 02:06, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: A bit of research suggests to me that Anna Thompson Dodge was a famous socialite for many many years, garnering frequent press coverage.  Since notability is not temporary, I'd say this should be kept and expanded.--Milowent (talk) 03:51, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: I am also irritated to find that the nominator here is a blocked sockpuppet, a continuation of the childish tormenting of the article creator, who is a prolific contributor to the project. I'd propose the AfD should be procedurally closed as keep.--Milowent (talk) 04:06, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - Sources in article are sufficient to demonstrate notability. WP:ANYBIO is subservient to WP:N, which requires merely significant coverage in reliable independent sources (such as those in the article).  Commentors should note that this is one of a large number of articles created by User:Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) which have been nominated by User:Gattosby, and while this one should be evaluated (as all AfDs) on its own strengths and weaknesses, the others appear to have been nominated without sufficient care or regard to their merits and some have been speedily closed as a snow keep. - DustFormsWords (talk) 04:07, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
