Is the subject sufficiently of note (notable) independently in her own right, or is redirection to another article a better way? -- KC9TV 02:18, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2012 November 14. Snotbot t • c » 02:31, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:GNG; certainly is notable. Just take a look on Google, there's The Guardian, The Huffington Post, The Daily Telegraph, everything. Premature nomination, so perhaps even a "speedy keep". Article may not be the best, but person is still, again, notable, see WP:NOTABLE. TBr and ley 05:21, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The way that the article was previously written suggests something slightly different, with a fair dose of possible self- and insider-editing. Well, back in England, there was virtually none outside of the BBC who had actually heard of her, before this Jimmy Savile scandal. I remain undecided, neither keep, damn, nor re-direct. -- KC9TV 06:30, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Director of News at the BBC is a notable position. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:21, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- Senior managers in BBC are certainly notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:47, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
