Lara Bloom


She does not conform to any criteria on Notability (people). Her only clam to notability is one story about Madonna from six years ago and a story about being "Katie Melua's Lesbian lover" which in all probability is a load of rubbish. Hera1187 14:08, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable per WP:BIO. Kavadi carrier 15:06, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a hoax. The quote about her being "the only gay in [her] village" is a running joke from the sketch show Little Britain. Wavy G 15:20, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * a humorous phrase used by many people - not evidence of anything TerriNunn 17:43, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

There is almost NO basis for any of the gossip and the article itself is in no way remarkable. Wikipedia is a community, a website and an encyclopædia, the last thing it needs to be is a gossip forum.-ECH3LON 00:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Retain she is the subject of a major story in the best selling newspaper in the UK - she easily meets the notability criteria (which are not exhaustive in any case) e.g. The person has been the primary subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the person. This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles . Persons achieving renown or notoriety for their involvement in newsworthy events, such as by being assassinated. The question is: would a significant number of people expect/want to find out more about the subject? Yes. Retain. TerriNunn 17:43, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, only source is a gossip column. A part-time paparazzi with one minor scoop, now dating a celebrity, but celebrity doesn't rub off. NN.--Dhartung | Talk 22:42, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete, the article itself is non-remeberable and is comprised completely of rumors.
 * Delete per nom. She is definitely not the principal subject of multiple, non trivial published works. Ohconfucius 06:44, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete no unverification.-- danntm T C 16:27, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
