 * N, K. Kappa 23:03, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and move Cleaned up the article and made it a valid stub. Very notable, but the "Trudi" spelling seems to be correct, not "Trudy" -Harmil 23:17, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Note, as others have said below, there was a move mid-vote by someone who didn't realize that that would cause confusion. My vote continues to be keep, as stated above. I also feel that the redirect should be kept, as it is a likely misspelling, and not otherwise used. -Harmil 18:47, 25 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete. Lots of people give away money. What makes this person worthy of an encyclopedia? Gamaliel 23:20, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * The Order of Canada -Harmil 23:21, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, Trudi LeCaine is a member of the Order of Canada. She has been a Member of the Order (C.M.) since 1991. Her citation can be read at . Keep, but move it to the correct spelling Trudi LeCaine. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 23:30, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * One of 5053 recipients. I'm not sure every single recipient is notable enough for an encyclopedia. I also feel the same way about the OBE for the record. Gamaliel 00:17, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, not everyone who is a Member, Officer or Compaion of the Order is on the encyclopedia, just yet, but I believe that someone who was inducted into the Order of Canada is worthy for inclusion on here. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 00:34, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Trudi LeCaine. Ben-w 23:49, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Problem is that during the voting, we now have two pages, and the new page does not preserve the history. I respectfully ask that we make the (new) duplicate article a redirect until the voting is over. -Harmil 23:59, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Then, once the vote is over, we can speedy delete the new page, so we can make way for the moving. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 00:01, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Sounds great. Thanks. -Harmil 10:53, 20 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep article on notable Canadian arts patron and adopt procedures as per Harmil and Zscout70 to deal with move. Capitalistroadster 01:30, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep notable arts patron. --Simon.Pole 07:51, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. Notable arts patron. JamesBurns 08:45, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, Order of Canada is a good enough recognition for notability as far as I'm concerned. -Joshuapaquin 12:10, July 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I have corrected the spelling of her name. (By the way, I apologize if moving the article was a breach of VfD etiquette). She is notable. --YUL89YYZ 12:22, July 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep; per Zscout370 and Capitalistroadster. Ground Zero 13:35, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep known and honoured Ottawa arts patron and inventor of idea for Rideau Canal skating rink. Double Blue  (Talk) 17:49, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Being so highly honoured and responsible for opening the world's longest skating rink firmly establishes notability.  Hall Monitor 18:20, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: Does not appear in any biographical database I searched. Gamaliel 01:32, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Perhaps, but she is verifiable: Order of Canada, mentioned in The Canadian Encyclopedia here, here, and here, and her Globe & Mail obit. is reprinted here. And, she meets WP:BIO: -made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in the specific field; and -all information in the article can be independently verified now, nearly 6 years after her death.  Double Blue  (Talk) 02:49, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Not disputing verifiability, but notability. I'd probably vote keep if she had her own entry in the Canadian Encyclopedia.  Nothing I've read makers her out to be anything more than some random philanthropist. Gamaliel 07:08, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * This VfD was put on Trudy LeCaine which was a spelling mistake and corrected with a redirect in the middle of this debate. I vote delete the redirect and keep the article. -maclean25
 * sorry if that redirect was a no-no -- I figured that the VFD discussion could continue in reference to the article anyway and I might as well.
 * It's not really a no-no, since you announced it ahead of time. But, I just think for futute reference, it is just not a good idea to do. But, at least we just have to remove the VFD reference and all should be well. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 21:05, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable. &#0149;Zhatt&#0149;  16:13, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Order of Canada recipients are notable. &mdash; mendel &#9742; 15:03, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
