The result was merge to Operation Backfire (FBI), which seems to have been done already. Although the consensus is not entirely clear, this seems to be most in keeping with WP:BLP1E and would address most arguments made here. Sandstein (talk) 06:55, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Negative BLP for single-non-notable crime. Sources all discuss crime. Not seeing lasting notability.  MBisanz  talk 10:13, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect to Earth Liberation Front as failing notability. Thanks, SqueakBox 16:16, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. The crime is relatively notable (though likely not enough for a separate article), but the criminal as an individual is not. If a whole article on this individual in a reliable, national publication were cited, I would begin to reconsider. Nick Graves (talk) 19:31, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to ELF. The information here is probably worth keeping as a bullet point or two in that article. B figura  (talk) 23:15, 27 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep multiple major crimes, significant "environmental protection" arsonist. There was a single trial on multiple counts of destrucction of unrelated facilities in several different states. Not ONEEVENTDGG (talk) 01:04, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Multiple events and can't merge into one article since she was a player in two organizations as well as the FBI program to capture her. She has internal links to three articles. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 03:02, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per Richard Arthur Norton . Edison (talk) 03:33, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not every perp deserves a fan page on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.6.157.14 (talk) 14:04, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * keep per Arthur and DGG. This isn't BLP1E. JoshuaZ (talk) 14:46, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Question: I still only see one event mentioned in the article. Multiple crimes, certainly, but all part of the same spree. What am I missing? Nick Graves (talk) 03:08, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Note: -- Richard Arthur Norton merged this into Operation Backfire (FBI) several days ago. I completed the process by placing a redirect in the original article. -- Tom Ketchum 18:45, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge -- I suppose the above makes me vote this way -- Tom Ketchum 18:45, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Merge to the Operation Backfire article. WP:NOT is pretty clear. Tarc (talk) 19:07, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * As of now, the article only contains materials about the crime; there is no biographical info or at least some expected info about activities as an environmentalist (I'm also unable to find any online sources about this). So, merge and redirect to Operation Backfire (FBI), which is fitting better than the organizations' articles since she is associated with two as pointed out above. Should new references (about the person) come up in the future, we may discuss resurrecting the page then; right now, it is only an events-article, not a biography. --PeaceNT (talk) 14:50, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
