Kimberly Leach

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

subject has no notable achievements. Close and merge to the existing comprehensive and well-referenced article on The TedmeisterProudlyhumble07 07:35, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Moved nomination to separate page. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 07:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 *  Neutral Keep I have heard of her, but that is probably because of my researching and doing a paper on Ted Bundy for a psychology class. But she may be better off as a stub on Ted Bundy's article page .  She is notable, not for any achievement, but for the high-profile of her murderer, as well as her age in the case.

 * Keep. She's also well-known because her case was the one that allowed Florida to finally execute him. -- Charlene 08:25, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment This also appears to be a WP:POINT nomination. -- Charlene 19:47, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge. If what Charlene says is the case then the information is notable, but only in the context of Ted Bundy. It should therefore appear in his article rather than separately. BTLizard 10:30, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep I can only repeat my opinion why especially Kimberly Leach meets IMHO the criteria for inclusion: one can argue that Kimberly Leach is the most notable victim of Bundy because at the end he was executed for her murder (although he was sentenced to death in several cases): The official announcement stated that he had been executed for the murder of Kimberly Leach. Although I really don't think WP:BIO was written with such cases in mind, one can easily apply Persons achieving renown or notoriety for their involvement in newsworthy events.

 * Merge to Ted Bundy. There is little chance that this BIO could be expanded; ultimately it is not a biography we need as the girl was not notable.  If it should be kept, it should be renamed to be about the incident rather than the person in order to prevent unrelated information about the family being added.

 * keep please looks like a point nomination to me too yuckfoo 01:13, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notability and noteworthy achievements can be mutually exclusive things, as in this case.  Burntsauce 16:58, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
