Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 07:13, 9 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep : appears to have received specific media coverage from both foreignpolicy.com, as well as an telegraph.co.uk article regarding her having been identified as personally riding a rollercoaster alongside the DPRK's Supreme Leader.  The status of her diplomatic posting and this reporting of what occurred during per posting; reported on by independent and reliable sources lead me to tend toward keep over delete.

Diplomats are not inherently notable but there are multiple in-depth, and independent sources on this diplomat. -- User:Namiba 18:44, 9 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The two keep votes above did complete BEFOREs, but were unable to find any sources to present other than those already in the article.  Jack's comment here [17] , specifically ...as well as an telegraph.co.uk article regarding her having been identified as personally riding a rollercoaster alongside the DPRK's Supreme Leader.  is completely false.  This is a BLP and this incident at the theme park was a serious diplomatic scandal.  There statement is completely false: The subject of the article was not the person photographed as the source clearly states.  [18] Jack clearly didn't read the source before their keep spam and in the process attributed a diplomatic scandal to an innocent person.  // Timothy :: talk 20:26, 20 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep .  Very small article about a weak notable diplomat supported by reliable references. -- A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count ) 01:25, 21 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete - on further reflection, I believe BLPs require a high degree of documentation than regular articles.  Weakly referenced BLPs watched by few editors are especially vulnerable to malicious actors.  This person's job as a diplomat makes this even more of a risk.  If this were not a BLP, I'd stick with my earlier "weak keep"-- A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count ) 20:24, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete This a WP:BLP as a far as I can see.  It needs real secondary sources to prove the person is notable.  I know I keep harping on about this, but it does need to be absolutely notable for a BLP.  I think this is probably below borderline at the moment.  I never signed up to 1 is ref is good.  WP:THREE has always been best practice for proving an Afd.  scope_creep Talk 10:29, 21 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
