Lady Margaret Butler

This is basically genealogy-cruft, there is little here beyond genealogy, the only non-trivial mention of her seems to be in one historical novel, which does not confer notability. PatGallacher (talk) 02:02, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Minor but significant historical figure. Adequate secondary sources. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:24, 18 January 2013 (UTC).


 * Keep I can see why, just based on this article, its notability was questioned. However, Lady Margaret Butler seems to have been regularly at court with the status of grandmother of the Queen. Her contemporaries would have considered her significant. Every biography on Anne Boleyn, Mary Boleyn, the six wives of Henry VIII or Elizabeth I - and that adds up to thousands of books - would have at least one or two paragraphs about Margaret. I will look through my books and see if I can improve the article. Boleyn (talk) 08:16, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Based on the article and Boleyn's comments, I think she's notable enough for an article. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:47, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets WP:BASIC as, although the coverage in individual sources (at least those viewable through Google Books) doesn't appear to be in-depth, there are several with a short section the subject, as pointed out by User:Boleyn who has begun referencing relevant works  Jebus989 ✰ 14:03, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep as the coheiress of an earldom and the mother of another earl, she seems noptable enough to me. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:38, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
