*'''Delete''' She seems to be noted mainly because of one single incident, which itself does not really merit an independent article either (although it might merit mention in article on copyright and Internet, for example). --[[User:Crusio|Crusio]] ([[User talk:Crusio|talk]]) 09:16, 30 July 2008 (UTC) |

*'''no vote''' I should declare that although I nominated this, I could be said to have some tangential conflict of interest as a Wiley employee (although the incident actually had nothing to do with Wiley - the incident is described more accurately [[John_Wiley_%26_Sons#Notable|here]]). I nominated the article solely for notability, and because it had previously been put up for [[WP:PROD]]. But to keep things neutral, I won't participate in the debate. Thanks for your understanding, guys - stick a note on my talk page if you want to comment on this. [[User:Hopsyturvy|Hopsyturvy]] ([[User talk:Hopsyturvy|talk]]) 09:21, 31 July 2008 (UTC) |

'''weak keep''' I think she is notable for the controversy surrounding her. I realize that the blogosphere is often not taken seriously by some people, but she appears to be notable in her field of blogging. However, perhaps this would be best suited if it were added to a section about controversy on a blog related article? I was watching Democracynow and they discussed how traditional media is trying to place a stranglehold on bloggers, so this might be good content for an article involving those issues.
