The first female firefighter to die in the line of duty in peacetime Britain, but Wikipedia is not a memorial. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:57, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep she was the first female firefighter to die on duty in the UK. That is a notable fact. WP is not a memorial, which is why we don't list every firefighter who died, just the notable ones.  There is enough coverage of this fact in secondary sources.  --Stephen 07:23, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep When she is the first firefighter to die, it makes her more notable than usual sadly. But more importantly, the article is supported by reliable sources from the BBC and the Daily Telegraph. Artene50 (talk) 08:54, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep for the reasons given above - being the first female firefighter to die makes her notable. Dpmuk (talk) 10:34, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep for reasons given above. While I agree that Wikipedia should not be a memorial, being the first British female firefighter to die while working does make her notable. --  JediLofty UserTalk 10:47, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I'd have thought the Queen's Gallantry Medal would fit the "person has received a notable award or honor" part of WP:BIO, plus agree with above comments. -Hunting dog (talk) 12:26, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Uncle. It looks like it's WP:SNOWing, so I withdraw my nomination. Clarityfiend (talk) 15:07, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
