Joanne Lees

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

Delete - subject is not independently notable apart from the disappearance/death of her boyfriend, fails WP:BLP1E. Information is adequately covered in other articles about the person and the event. Otto4711 (talk) 02:19, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge -- anything useful and redirect to Peter Falconio, or preferrably, Murder of Peter Falconio to cover the event rather than the person. - Longhair\talk 02:29, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge as per above, the only reason she's notable is the murder of her boyfriend. Michellecrisp (talk) 03:07, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Murder of Peter Falconio is a redirect to Peter Falconio. Otto4711 (talk) 03:06, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Strong keep. Joanne Lees is or has been a notable author allegedly paid an advance of GBP250 000 for one of the Top 100 books of 2006, the subject of a telemovie (Joanne Lees: Murder in the Outback), a victim of crime and a murder suspect. WWGB (talk) 03:16, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge -- This article seems to be a WP:COATRACK whose main subject is the murder of Peter Falconio. That was a notoriuos murder, so that one article on him (about the murder case) is justified, but we do not need two.  Peterkingiron (talk) 21:23, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Presumably on the same basis the article on Falconio's convicted murderer Bradley John Murdoch should also be merged? Murtoa (talk) 21:31, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per WWGB. While that may ne the intial reason for her notability, it's just not true that the only reason she is notable now is because of the death of her boyfriend. Lees is a published author of a top selling book. If the article has elements of WP:COATRACK, fix it through editing. -- Mattinbgn\talk 19:39, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep because of references cited by WWGB. Clear evidence of third-party comment in her own right. Stephen Turner (Talk) 19:59, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per WWGB and Matt, although some concerns over content. Orderinchaos 00:51, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
