Janice Neuberger
Contested prod. Article gives little assertion of notability, and no sources. What little is here does not satisfy WP:BIO. Valrith 11:54, 25 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment: If true, she would be notable for being a key figure of the LaRouche movement. But we must have sources, precious, yes sources. Alba 13:27, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 *  Weak Keep.  Wife of a frequent presidential candidate.  I have added a source.  ergot 00:53, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
 *  AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.  Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks, Whisp e ring 01:59, 31 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. She was divorced from LaRouche many years before he ran for President.  She is briefly mentioned in the article on LaRouche.  There is nothing notable about her.  There is no reason to have a separate entry for her. Rentir 03:02, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm somewhat inclined to agree with you. Note the citation that I added; in a 350+ page biography of LaRouche, she is only mentioned on pages 8-9.  Helga Zepp-LaRouche she isn't.  But I'm leaving my !vote as weak keep because of the NOW claim, which I would like to see sourced and expanded if accurate.  ergot 14:36, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I did web searches for "Janice Neuberger" on Google and Ask. Looks like almost all of the hits are for sites that Wikipedia or repackaged Wikipedia.  It doesn't seem like there is anything notable about her.  The NOW claim isn't substantiated. Rentir 17:52, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Changing my !vote to neutral since the NOW claim is questionable (and is a very vague claim in the first place). She certainly can't be described as a leader in the LaRouche movement (see my comment below).  Perhaps this could be deleted on the grounds that it can't be expanded beyond a stub?  Incidentally, looking around for precedent didn't provide anything useful.  We kept an article on this girl (VfD discussion), whose only claim to fame is having dated a much less notable political extremist than LaRouche.  We seem to have kept the article on Al Gore's youngest son five times now (see Talk:Al Gore III), but Gore is notable for reasons beyond his candidacy.  We do seem to have an article on Ralph Nader's sister, who I'm not sure would pass the prof test and perhaps should be AfD'd.  ergot 20:18, 31 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete as per nom. ςפקι Д Иτς ☺ ☻ 03:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep because notability is established on two separate grounds: 1) leading member of LaRouche movement 2) leading member of NOW. I, too, would like to see this article fleshed out more and would reconsider my vote if, in a year, the article remains as is. Allon FambrizziAllon Fambrizzi
 * "Leading member of the LaRouche movement" is inaccurate because they divorced while she and LaRouche were still in the Socialist Workers Party. ergot 15:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * See my comment above about Janice Neuberger web searches not finding much except for her Wikipedia entry (repackaged on a few sites). If Neuberger really is notable, shouldn't there be clear evidence of her being a leading member of the groups you mention?  If there is evidence then it would be good if someone could bring it to this discussion because it might change peoples' views in this discussion. Rentir 17:52, 31 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, not really notable except by extension. I'm suspicious of the NOW claim, too -- seems to appear nowhere else but our article. --Dhartung | Talk 09:49, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable in her own right, but only by being married to someone for 9 years over 40 years ago. Emeraude 12:42, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete No evidence from sources satisfying WP:INDY that she meets WP:BIO. Even if she was still LaRouche's current spouse that wouldn't be adequate for WP:BIO notability in the absence of sources primarily about her.  GRBerry 03:43, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
