Rebecca Loos

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

Only barely notable for a single event. LiamUK (talk) 13:18, 20 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - She's been host of at least two shows from what I see. There are numerous sources as to who she is.  She's appeared in several magazines.  She seems, from this side of the pond, to be famous for being famous even after the affair.  Dismas |(talk) 13:26, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh. Does being famous for being famous count, then? I suppose we've got a lot of biographies to write, then, fellow wikipedians. LiamUK (talk) 13:52, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * See Paris Hilton for the first and most prominent example I can think of. Dismas |(talk) 03:40, 21 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep easily passes WP:GNG with multiple secondary sources used as references. Out of interest what "single event" is the nominator referring too? --Jimbo[online] 13:29, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The single event is, as mentioned in the first sentence of the article, her selling of her story that she supposedly had an affair with David Beckham. LiamUK (talk) 13:52, 20 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep, obviously. When someone genuinely is famous for being famous, to the point of having multiple reliable independent sources to provide details on said person, and especially where said person has had significant exposure through multiple television shows not directly related to the Beckham affair, then said person easily passes our notability guidelines. We cover celebrities because other sources cover celebrities, not because we deem them to have done anything particularly important. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 15:19, 20 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - If she was famous only for sleeping with David Beckham, then it would be delete. But considering what she's done afterwards (such as wanking off a pig appearing on the Farm, Celebrity Love Island and Celebrity X Factor), then she's surely notable to appear here. DitzyNizzy (aka Jess) | (talk to me) | (What I've done)  15:54, 20 July 2009 (UTC)


 * [[Image:Symbol keep vote.svg|15px]] Strong keep — Agree with Chris Cunningham.  Dspradau   → talk   16:08, 20 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - easily satisfies general notability guidelines. This AFD should probably be snowed. Morbidthoughts (talk) 21:09, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Even I would have to agree with that. I mean, I still think it's terrible that she's considered notable, but perhaps that's a problem with the world, not wikipedia. LiamUK (talk) 20:39, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Which is how we on this side of the Atlantic feel about Ms. Hilton. (At least Loos would have looked a lot better in that hamburger commercial than Hilton did.) -- llywrch (talk) 21:13, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. You are having a laugh. Has a mountain of ongoing news coverage about her. Fences  &amp;  Windows  16:55, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep There is a lot of news coverage about her, and she has appeared on many notable shows.  D r e a m Focus  00:13, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:PIGMASTURBATOR, and also general notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:40, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
