 * Keep She was a big part of the story of how the guns were obtained, and she was in the news for quite some time after the shooting. Jmlk17 08:11, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep as argued above. She had the bill named after her as well. I'm frankly not sure why this is up for deletion. Granted, she didn't exactly discover the cure for polio, but there is plenty of notability. --Bongwarrior 08:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep. Nowhere in WP:BIO does it say that notability is based on achievement. I'm also concerned the nom may believe every VTech victim needs an article, and (after some were merged or deleted) is nominating these articles to make a point. But most of these nominated victims became notable over the course of time. Generally it's difficult to know whether a specific victim will be notable three days after their murder. Leslie Mahaffy, for instance, is clearly extremely notable because almost every Canadian over 25 will recognize her as one of the most famous murder victims (if not the most famous) in Canadian history - but she likely wouldn't have met WP:BIO three days after her remains were identified.
