I'm a big fan of Bill Simmons' columns (on a tangentially related note, his article is severe need of a cleanup) and I got a few laughs out of his wife beating him in NFL picks, but is she really that notable? Aside from the aformentioned NFL picks, reviewing The Bachelor DVDs doesn't seem to meet WP:BIO and the article is lacking in reliable sources. I'd say merge, but any relevant info is probably already in her husband's article anyway. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 20:41, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to her husband's article. Semi-notable but not really important enough for an article, and doing a bio verges on WP:BLP1E. --Dhartung | Talk 21:07, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect, merging content as necessary.  Adrian  M. H.  20:03, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

 * I believe this article should stay. She was a big hit with her articles and had lots of fans. (Viewport 16:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC))
 * Yeah, but "popularity" isn't an indicator of notabilty - where are the reliable sources written about her? And no, her husband's columns do not count. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 16:37, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to her husband's article. As the article's original author, I think this is the best course of action right now. I created the article when ABC (National TV Network) hired her for The Bachelor reviews (not the DVDs, though. She reviewed the shows the day after they aired), as it seemed she was gaining wider recognition, possibly beyond the internet-space; but if she indeed won't be writing anymore, it is unlikely that her notability would grow. Some info may be able to be used on her husband's page though. NeWDaC 17:38, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
