Harriet Mead

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Basically a resume rewritten to the third person. The fact that there's currently a "my" in the article leads me to believe that this is exactly what it is. Besides, nothing in the articles points in the direction of WP:BIO. - Lilac Soul (talk • contribs • count) 21:12, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Withdrawing my nomination, the new version establishes some notability - I assume that the award she won is indeed prestigious, which would satisfy WP:BIO. - Lilac Soul (talk • contribs • count) 06:35, 26 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. No assertion of notability. Also a copyvio of (if the page is nearly blank, Select All to reveal the text). I42 (talk) 21:45, 24 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete as per nom, unless evidence of notability is added before the end of the AFD. Locke9k (talk) 22:03, 24 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete unless notability is established rather quickly. That's an interesting trick on the website. Text in paper colour, I suppose. (Hi-tech invisible ink...) Well discovered. I wonder why they've done it.... Peridon (talk) 22:17, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * That should read screen colour, I suppose. Been working with paper-based text work for too long... Peridon (talk) 22:19, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Changing to Keep following alterations. Peridon (talk) 20:45, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:VERIFY (none). Nsaa (talk) 22:30, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I found some sources:, , and . Not public access but this does document her: .  Another source:   She may very well be notable!  I'm leaning towards a Weak keep but as of yet I'm undecided...I await comment on the sources I found.  Cazort (talk) 22:42, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The Guardian one looks good to me. The obit is a marginal reference establishing only existence. The Berwickshire one is reasonable, again in my opinion. The pdf I stopped after five minutes with no usable info having appeared. It would appear to be about ringing, which is possibly more relevant to her father. If you could tell us what's the important bit, it might help. Peridon (talk) 23:01, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The only relevant section in the PDF is under "New Arrangements for the WSG Colour-marking Register". It doesn't do much more than establish that she's an artist, and is involved in the Colour-marking register and works with the National Centre for Ornithology...which I think is an interesting/relevant fact since as an artist, she works with wildlife.

 * comment I deleted most of the texts, since it is cut and paste from . - 7-bubёn >t 23:20, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Good job! I think this page is salvagable, albeit marginal.  This page:  seems like it could be used as a source; it's from a non-profit organization which seems fairly reputable and isn't self-published like the other site, although I think it's important we also rely on the other sources as well as they seem "more independent".  Also, this web source:   Cazort (talk) 04:26, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * comment I have revised the text taking into account the concerns raised above and hopefully now prove that Harriet is a notable artist, one of the best in her field, so I would request that you keep the article Drsteveb —Preceding undated comment added 10:41, 25 March 2009 (UTC).


 * keep the rewritten version. - 7-bubёn >t 21:35, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
