Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Christina Billotte
I understand that this AfD has been prompted by a recent edit skirmish on this article by two inexperienced editors, with good faith on both sides, and that the article needs to be better written and sourced. However I do feel that deletion would be a waste of effort, the subject is a sufficiently notable participant in both the riot grrrl and DC punk scenes. I would direct attention to this quote from  http://books.google.com/books?id=CU1jKq0TlvQC&lpg=PP1&dq=Dance%20of%20Days%3A%20Two%20Decades%20of%20Punk%20in%20the%20Nation's%20Capital&client=firefox-a&pg=PA338#v=onepage&q=billotte&f=false P.338 of the Dance of Days book - "''The energy of Bikini Kill, Bratmobile... ... Christina Billotte,... had dramatically altered the DC punk scene. Indeed RG energy would soon even surface in hardcore...''" . Another notable mention would be that she is included in the Venus Zine - an authoritative source on such matters - list of 46 Greatest Female Guitarists of All Time http://www.venuszine.com/articles/music/2575/The_Greatest_Female_Guitarists_of_All_Time. Lastly, as a member of four notable groups (current Afd's notwithstanding) she passes usic easily
