The result of the debate was REDIRECT to Midge Ure. Clearly not deleting, and clearly redirecting among the non-deleting votes. -Splash 06:55, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Three Google hits, all of which are from Wikipedia content.

- Keep. The number of google hits is not a guide for deleting content. --Apyule 11:51, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Legitimate question: have you ever heard of this person or can you find anything about them in a citable reference that would make them notable? The burden of proof of notability is on the article. Fernando Rizo T/C 17:12, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I have heard of this person. It is very difficult to "prove" notability. It's not as if there is a clear line for some things. --Apyule 02:03, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Granted, it can be difficult to "prove" notability in a borderline case, but most people would be willing to agree that someone is notable if an article can cite references from trustworthy sources. "I've heard of her" doesn't jibe with WP:CITE and WP:V. Surely you can understand that one person saying "I've heard of her" doesn't make someone worthy of inclusion. I'm sure we've all heard of plenty of non-notable people. Fernando Rizo T/C 08:09, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry for any confusion. I only said that I have heard of her in direct response to your question. It does not in itself make her important. --Apyule 09:36, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
