This lacks sufficient separate noteability from the main Barbie article. The page references just note that particular Barbies existed and do not otherwise show any form of noteability. Jtrainor (talk) 17:22, 2 July 2019 (UTC) Jtrainor (talk) 17:22, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - Should it be merged with the main page? Does it need its own? I'm not sure what to think! MaskedSinger (talk) 18:26, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I'm not seeing a reason to delete in the nomination. The page is obviously a spinoff from the main article about the topic, like an appendix. As that main article is 67K, that seems fine. There seems to be plenty of academic interest in the topic. For example, this paper identifies computer engineer as the 126th career and this demonstrates the scale of the topic. Andrew D.

- Keep This article is in dire need of expansion, but that is not a reason to delete because of WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP. Found lots of sources: Time (magazine) [1], Vogue (magazine) [2], Insider Inc. [3], PopSugar [4], Working Mother [5] and more. Easily passes WP:LISTN since it's "list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources". Not to mention even many more sources that mention how impactful Barbie's careers are [6] [7] [8] Jovanmilic97 (talk) 16:11, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
