Dee Doocey
Borough councillors and London Assembly members are not inherently notable and there is no evidence of real-world achievements. This is a multi-nomination also for: Delete all. BlueValour 00:34, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Jennette Arnold
 * Murad Qureshi
 * Mike Tuffrey
 * Samantha Heath
 * Delete. Consider merging into appropriate council article through list of current and past members. Jon Cates 01:52, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The more you look at these politicians, the more obvious it is that they have a lot of power and influence. Dee Doocey heads the London Assembly committee responsible for the 2012 Olympics. I expanded the Dee Doocey article. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 04:22, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep&mdash;Certainly as notable as the numerous rock bands and anime which make the Wikipedia. For some editors non-notable is a shorthand for subjects that have not generated enough independent interest to permit of the existence of a verifiable, neutral article, with reliable sources. But remember that there is a difference between an obscure but important and verifiable topic and a topic which is of importance only to its creator, and which therefore has received no external scrutiny. This article passes the Notability "guidelines". Williamborg (Bill) 04:44, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per TruthbringerToronto and Williamborg. --HResearcher 06:51, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep London assembly members are not borough councillors. The directly elected ones represent 2 London boroughs, a larger electorate than a Member of Parliament. They do not have the power of an MP, but are certainly notable enough to have their own entry as political figures. Secretlondon 08:49, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - the chairperson of the tourism committee for preparations for the London Olympics is unquestionably notable. EuroSong talk 11:53, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into appropriate council article. --Arnzy (whats up?)  14:08, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Williamborg (Bill). Addhoc 17:22, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - I accept that Dee Docey will be considered notable because of chairing the Olympic committee. Can she be Speedy Keep, please and relist the other four who do not have this notability? In the latter case, WP:BIO specifies membership of national, state or provincial bodies. The London assembly has far more limited powers because many functions are carried out by the London Boroughs.

 * Keep per Bill &rArr;    SWAT Jester    Ready    Aim    Fire!  20:10, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - since this is a discussion not a vote please explain the notability of the other four guys, against WP:BIO. BlueValour 20:15, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. They all have biographies linked from their pages. You can expand the articles using that information. Once you have done that, you will see that they meet WP:BIO. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 20:26, 21 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep per Williamborg and Secret London, I believe that these people are important enough to warrant articles. RFerreira 21:35, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, notable enough for article, related to 2012 Olympics. --TheM62Manchester 21:36, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
