 * Keep Satisfies the basic criteria, being the subject of coverage in a variety of respectable national media for a variety of activities and achievements.  Andrew Davidson (talk) 07:55, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep She's also a charity activist, author and one of the UK's most beautiful talking heads for politics, frequently appearing on the BBC and Sky. She's highy notable as a scan of the article helps to demonstrate; it would be embarrassing not to have an entry for her. FeydHuxtable (talk) 10:06, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep I have seen many articles up for deletion and can understand why they were considered for deletion. This time I do not have a clue why this article is up for deletion. I looked for Rowenna Davis on the internet. I found so much notable stuff. She has written a book that has gotten at least a few reviews. She has written much for The Guardian and The Observer, New Statesman, etc. In these publications her articles and commentaries are prominently displayed, sometimes with her photo at the top. She is a political commentator who holds a political office. Just Google 'Rowenna Davis' and I think you will see my point. Bill Pollard (talk) 12:59, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I've read again and again some people see AfDs like a video game where they get a kick if they "score" and AfD. CarolMooreDC 17:40, 4 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep Hello, I nominated this for deletion. From the contributions so far it seems I misjudged Rowenna Davis' prominence as a journalist, which I now realise is the primary justification for her notability, rather than being a minor local politician. I was a bit over-cynical. Apologies! Pitcairne (talk) 23:43, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
