Proposal for deletion[edit]

I have removed the deletion banner from the article. I agree that this article (in it's original form) was a gross violation of NPOV and correct Wikipedia style, however I've done quite a bit since then to get it tidied up. I disagree with the claims that the subject is non-notable. The subject is a well-known person in the British advertising industry, however we might have to correct the article since it mainly focuses on her journalism work. I request that we do not delete this page. --Salimfadhley (talk) 20:37, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Contributor with close connection with its subject[edit]

Salim Fadhley, who is the husband of the subject of the article, continues to be the main editor of this article. This raises significant questions about neutrality / conflict of interest. Sections read like hyperbole / promotional text 82.11.177.11 (talk) 05:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you feel that there are sections which are exaggerated or promotional I suggest you remove them. --Salimfadhley (talk) 19:17, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal for rewriting[edit]

I have inserted a re-write of the article based on what seems relevant from the article aside from her quotes. Feel free to properly copy, add on, or rewrite any of this from the source. -The Great iShuffle (talk) 21:05, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Be bold! Most of the changes to this article have been to remove the puffery, I agree it's vastly overweight for the quality of references available. --Salimfadhley (talk) 22:15, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
