Lisa Wickham

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

Not notable. Only a handful of relevant ghits, most passing mentions in Trinindad newspapers. Only sources are a link to one such article and a scanned image of a print article. Article reads like a news release or résumé. ASuthor has had no other contributions to Wikipedia other than this article.

 * Note: Original author or an anon IP keeps removing AfD notice. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:56, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: I have blocked original author for a short time for removing the tag. ...  disco spinster   talk  20:11, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. The references appear to be sufficient to establish notability. Even if the reference presented as a scanned clipping is uncritical, it is still a legitimate newspaper article. And a newspaper article is a newspaper article, even if it is published in Trinidad. -- Eastmain (talk) 19:09, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: She's from Trinidad, so the sources would be expected to be there. I just don't think these two are enough, and there's little else to find of any substance. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 19:19, 31 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete I do not see that the sources are substantial, and I do not see from the career as described that there is any likelihood of notability if further sources were found. DGG (talk) 02:39, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - clearly promotional. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  16:20, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Insufficient notability to meet guidelines. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:40, 5 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete lacks notability and sources. --Stormbay (talk) 02:58, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - Seems quite promotional but the references are valid and notability is suitable not only in her country but also her region. Can't she be asked to repost without it reading like her promo material? misnix 19:19, 5 January 2009
 * Comment: We have. Her block has recently been removed. I'm still skeptical, but I've changed my mind before. We shall see. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 03:06, 6 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Weak delete. Doesn't seem to meet WP:BIO but may come close. Stifle (talk) 12:49, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - seems to me to be a case of local notability (or systemic bias); she might not be notable to us, but she seems to be pretty notable in Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean region, judging from the various references provided. When taken together with the TV show she produces, the E-Zone, I'd say there's enough here to pass WP:BIO. Terraxos (talk) 03:01, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - Wickham is a notable media personality in Trinidad & Tobago, as with most Trinbagonian personalities sourcing clippings are difficult. Will review article for content and edit to make less advertorial and a few more sources to be found by January 16th 2009. (Ian M. S. Royer) 03:01, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
