Axelle Despiegelaere

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

She was "discovered" at the world cup, signed a contract with L'Oreal and they ended it 3 days later. She's not notable. Not yet anyway. Redirect to 2014 FIFA World Cup or L'Oréal. Fails WP:NMODEL. Any sourecs about her are just about her signing a contract with L'Oreal. That's it, nothing about her, just the contract. I don't find that note worthy. LADY LOTUS • TALK 16:59, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
 * But passes WP:GNG which has primacy I believe? Certainly widespread, if misplaced in my belief, coverage. Perhaps she is not notable as a model, but as an internet viral phenomenon. Brigade Piron (talk) 17:06, 11 July 2014 (UTC)


 * What are other examples of "internet viral phenomenon" with their own Wikipedia article? LADY LOTUS • TALK 17:09, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - Her "fame" is a one-time event. WP is not a news agency or a newspaper specialized on magazine news. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 18:24, 11 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete She just got recruited with a contact. If this goes somewhere, she might eventually pass notability, but she does not at this time.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:18, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Her page should be deleted, she is not a Belgian model, she is just a student who got her picture in the media by chance, L'oreal stopped its contract with her before it even started. If every time someone goes viral they get a wikipedia page, it will end up full of people with their 15 minutes of fame and that kind of information is not relevant at all in my opinion.

 * Delete:  Not notable.  Perhaps the incident can be a footnote in the 2014 World Cup article. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 05:04, 12 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete article but don't remove content: I agree with the others this isn't notable enough. However, the information in this article shouldn't be deleted altogether either. It is quite useful content that should be included in another related article, perhaps 2014 FIFA World Cup. --Kimberlylambert (talk) 09:27, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: I wouldn't be surprised to see her parlay this publicity into modeling work for other (lesser) companies, but as of right now, this person is just a student involved in a bit of one-time World Cup trivia.   Mbinebri   talk &larr; 15:31, 12 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete: She's beautiful, but not news worthy. Her contract was ended after 13 days. Though I do not agree it should have been ended, the fact reminds, it was ended. If she reappears in the media or on the world stage, then she might deserve a page. But not right now.Jonathon The Impaler (talk) 11:59, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:NOTABILITY as an example of WP:BLP1E. --Jersey92 (talk) 16:09, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Brief contract and no evidence of any lasting notability. Hergilei (talk) 23:33, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete At this point, clearly WP:1E. If she goes on to do more, an article can be warranted, but as of now, doesn't meet WP:NPEOPLE. ~ | twsx | talkcont | ~ 08:05, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Do Not Delete have you SEEN the hits this article has gotten?? use the wikipedia article traffic counter - Axelle Despiegelaere has like one-million-percent more hits than 99 percent of all Wikipedia articles!! if people like this -and READ this-, what's the big deal?? what are you gonna do - tell people they SHOULDN'T read articles like this? you tell me how you're gonna put a stop to this... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.231.58.81 (talk) 08:31, 14 July 2014 (UTC) — 96.231.58.81 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete: Come on, seriously? Use this to promote WP? This is just shameless self promotion, this girl is not encyclopedic material, is paparazzi magazine material. Gabriel A. Zorrilla (talk) 22:34, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: 3-day long "contract" with L'Oreal terminated, the girl is no longer a model; could become a funny meme though, but those do fail WP:NOTABILITY. ᴳᴿᴲᴳᴼᴿᴵᴷ ☺ ᶤᶯᵈᶸᶩᶢᵉ  22:41, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete despite huge pageview attention in July, maybe the article could be reinstated if she models for a firm that sells hunting apparel.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 11:11, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
