who wrote a rather silly article. I put up with it for a year or so, then rewrote a very POV/WP:OR peice as a newbie that was quickly reverted. As I slowly learned the ropes I deleted the junk, added the most important factoid of notability and a bunch of refs. But then I got more complaints and read

I doubt they can be fixed. They range from lack of NPOV, to lack of Notability, to CoI, etc. The page right now has many, many soap violations which would require a complete cleansing of the sources as they seem more about selling a product than actually dealing with references. The article would be

What are they? Are they things that can't be fixed? The sources by Milowent plus a few in the article seem to indicate that a decent article could be built. If people could be more specific about what these violations are or how they are defining third-part independent sources, it would help others

I feel that people are voting on the quality of the article, not the notability of its subject. I agree that it is a badly written article (and probably does Ms Moore more harm than good), however among the sources there are a few that point to her possible notability, for instance reviews of her

The fact that the article was created long before Carol Moore ever edited it herself dispells the notion (and arguments made) that this is about self-promotion. There is a significant amount of coverage on her as pointed out by Milowent and along with the sources cited there,

Perhaps the problem is in how we define "independent of the subject" in this case. Just to make sure we are on the same page, could yoy give me an example of a source cited there that you see as being one (if any), and another that you see as not being one?

On one hand, the article as it currently stands appears borderline-lean-towards-delete, but I think it also might have potential for improvement. 653:
