The result was keep. Promotionalism can be addressed by editing and "unencyclopedic" as framed here is too opinionated to override the GNG-grounded keep arguments Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:10, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment, hi, it would be useful if you let us no why you believe the article doesn't meet WP:GNG ie. which of the sources cited are not suitable for WP:NBIO (and please not just a blanket "all of them":)), thanks. Coolabahapple (talk) 15:46, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: For the purposes of this article, the only sources listed that are worthwhile are from the CBC, Macleans Magazine, PostCity, Globe and Mail, and the NY Daily News, and nearly all mention her in passing. The rest are all fairly blatant anti-GMO organizations. PureRED (talk) 16:02, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment News sources publish accounts of clever teen-agers and children as a form of human interest stories. But WP is neither a newspaper nor a tabloid, and we are not obliged to include everything they include. The GNG sets forth what is needed to show something notable if the subjecect is encyclopediccontent in the first place. If, on the pother hand, it is not the sort of content that belongs in an encyclopedia , the GNG is irrelevant. The first question is whether it might belong here, and only then do we consider whether it is sufficiently notable/important/sourced.  DGG ( talk ) 02:30, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Weak keep I think this boils down to (1) how notable is the GMO / anti-GMO debate generally and (2) how prominent within that debate is Rachel Parent? For me there is enough. --The Vintage Feminist (talk) 10:54, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
