 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article was closed before by AfD in 2017. After that, the major events in her life are - contested and "lost" a general election for MP, got a honorary doctorate from Bournemouth uni, contested an election independently and withdrew. Set up a foundation, which imo is not properly covered in media. I don't think anything she did after 2017 garnered enough media to make her notable. Daiyusha (talk) 05:59, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Nomination withdrawn I was mistaken with the name being shared by another person.Clearly passes GNG. Daiyusha (talk) 18:34, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment: We read above that "This article was closed before by AfD in 2017." A mere glance at that AfD makes it pretty clear that this is untrue. But if what the AfD says isn't enough, here's how the deleted article (created in 2007) started: "Sophie Cook (born 1974) is a British actress who is most notable for her role of Susan Pevensie in the Chronicles of Narnia BBC miniseries." (That was the second deletion of an article with this title. In 2006, this young fellow had created a single, inane sentence about some unidentified Sophie Cook.) -- Hoary (talk) 09:08, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:GNG. There are multiple news sources that cover Cook solely, and a lot of coverage of her as a candidate goes above and beyond routine. Ralbegen (talk) 12:16, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep There is significant in-depth coverage over more than a year. I am not seeing a problem here. The Telegraph profile seems significant to me.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 14:13, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep The article is not written in encyclopedic prose but, that aside, the sources add up in regards to notability. Trillfendi (talk) 21:43, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - The subject has been featured in several mainstream media publications with in-depth coverage in the UK, as noted above by Ralbegen, with wide coverage from reliable sources. Easily passes WP:GNG. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 03:39, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - I was very surprised to see this name on the list of AfD, as I remember the extensive coverage when she came out. As others have said, this coverage is more then enough to pass WP:GNG. Achaea (talk) 09:52, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - Thorough sourcing. Seems to have established notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CmdrGibbons (talk • contribs) 13:48, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
