| *'''Comment'''. I find this somewhat disturbing. BlueValour, who has been editing only since May, nominated this stub for deletion just 34 minutes after I created it. Do we now have a situation where people must post finished articles first time, lest they be nominated for deletion before they've added anything? This is a published author, a former scientific consultant to the government, who is frequently used as an expert source by the media, and as an expert witness by the British government. I hope BlueValour is not making a habit of this type of nomination. And BV, please don't edit other people's posts. ] <sup><font color="Purple">]</font></sup> 20:22, 15 July 2006 (UTC) | *'''Comment'''. I find this somewhat disturbing.

| :*'''Comment''' - I spend long periods patrolling new articles hence the rapid response. The report that Langley wrote was not in a peer reviewed journal. There are countless people around who have advised the Government, including me as it happens. And, SV please don't play the man and not the ball - it simply demonstrates a lack of confidence in your case. ] 20:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC) | :*'''Comment''' - I spend long periods patrolling new articles hence the rapid response.

Gill Langley
Delete - Fails WP:BIO - no doubt a worthy scientist but consultants and research fellows are, without being disrespectful, two a penny. One published report for a lobbying body doth not a notable person make. BlueValour 00:54, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. NawlinWiki 01:08, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. DarthVader 06:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. She does have a few hits in LexisNexis, but they are mostly news blurbs about her report and news releases that she wrote regarding the same subject. I don't think this makes her notable. --Aguerriero (talk) 15:56, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Nathan Beach 16:57, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. If you've written fewer peer reviewed articles than me, you're nowhere near notable. -- GWO
- Keep. This woman is a well-known animal protection expert in the UK and has acted as an advisor to the British government. This is just a stub. It will be filled out. SlimVirgin 19:20, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
