Non notable candidate redirect as per WP:POLITICIAN Wintonian (talk) 13:06, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Meets WP:N for coverage, if not yet politician. If your split from your husband is enough for a broadsheet to pick up on it, you're notable. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:33, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just because they are closely related to another person with an article does not mean they qualify for one themselves. See "Invalid criteria" just under: WP:POLITICIAN. --Wintonian (talk) 13:46, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Or rather see: WP:NOTINHERITED. --Wintonian (talk) 13:49, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You misunderstand me. My divorce didn't make it to the Torygraph, hers did. That's coverage in WP:RS, and an indication of some WP:N as a person, irrespective of whether she's a politician. Besides which, with that many titles published, I'd be hard-pressed to argue against her notability as an author (should anyone care). Andy Dingley (talk) 13:53, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I missed "With other bestselling authors" as it is only a brief mention, but the article really ought to be about the fact that she is an author not a candidate perhaps a NPV tag should be added? I'm not really sure whether to keep it or delete it now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wintonian (talk • contribs) 14:05, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep -- possibly notable as an author. Still NN as a politician - unless and until elected. Peterkingiron (talk) 21:29, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Very notable as an author. Major coverage in newspapers proves notability. Notability allows, per WP:NNC, the article to cover her political work in full, even if it's not the source of her notability. Bastin 09:38, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
• Keep -- Has sold millions of romance novels on both sides of the Atlantic. She's extremely well known in her genre. 173.49.135.190 (talk) 17:33, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
