 * Comment. This desperately needs a rewrite.  But Moore has apparently become notable for work on behalf of shark conservation, too: .  So, maybe it's not quite a BLP1E.  It's still shark-related, but not for the reasons one might expect. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 22:26, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment Yes, rewrite. An inherent problem is COI, since the Wikipedia article has been created by the author of a newly released book on Ms. Moore. The article's tone seems designed to sell books. 2601:188:0:ABE6:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 23:27, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I did some copy edits for tone. It's a bit more presentable now, but I agree that the book tie-in seems a bit suspicious.  The book itself got a little bit of coverage, too:  from the Orangeville Banner (a local newspaper),  from CTV News, and  from The Hamilton Spectator.  I'm curious to see if other people this is enough for significant coverage when you also include the sources about the shark attack itself, the conservation, and the motivational speaking.

 * Good sleuthing, but IMO this still falls under WP:BLP1E, as her post attack activities are not notable yet. If at some point that happens the article can easily be recreated ... WP:CRYSTAL -  Cwobeel   (talk)  03:53, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment Unless I am doing something wrong, only 5 libraries in the world has this book? I'm leaning towards Delete because I just see nothing inherently notable about being bitten and working to save sharks. Maybe there are better sources or I am doing something off...

 * Delete - single event; post-shark authorship of relatively obscure book is non-notable. Neutralitytalk 20:36, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment Moore is not the author of the book, the book is about her, thus it actually enhances notability. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:03, 4 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete fails WP:BLP1E. Joseph2302 (talk) 18:29, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I don't really understand the convoluted rules that govern deletions, however, aren't we trying to build a resource for readers? Have a look at the stats that show readers have been looking for unbiased information about this for some time. I also want to thank the creator of this article for trying to enter our hostile environment. I hope they are not discouraged.  Ottawahitech (talk) 13:45, 6 December 2015 (UTC)please ping me
 * Comment The guidelines aren't especially convoluted. As has been noted above, usually people are not considered notable for having been involved in a single incident. Viewer statistics are changeable, and aren't a metric for considering long term notability. Not to sound cynical, but the article's creator is a strong example of WP:COI, having written this to coincide with the publication of his book. That there are concerns about the article would be expected. 2601:188:0:ABE6:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 23:23, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
