The entire article is 1 line, and in any case, simply getting arrested isn't really enough to meet notability guidelines. If it did, we'd have thousands of police blotter arrestee pages. .אבי נ (talk) 10:32, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. I initially didn't believe that she was notable, but I did find mention of her in various academic texts such as this one. If it was just news coverage I'd agree, but the book coverage cements her notability. It needs some cleaning and probably constant maintenance to keep it neutral (as previous versions seemed to be written to be favorable towards Gigabyte), but there's enough here to merit a keep after some searching.

 * Keep. It's hard to argue with that list of references.  Some of them seem a bit light on coverage, but, overall, it seems fairly conclusive. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 07:18, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep. I agree with Tokyogirl179. She is in five published books. Enough merit to keep. Venudxb (talk) 06:51, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
