1082:. Your analysis of whether my grandmother (whom I never knew) was notable was made without any consideration of the historical context and without ever taking into consideration that she was a Hispanic female (the first to be elected to office in Arizona), living in a very male-dominated world, especially in southern Arizona in the 1930s. Even one of your colleagues expressly dismissed these factors as unimportant (again, by pure fiat). You also cite the conflict of interest policy, which I understand, but which is insensitive to the fact that the historical accomplishments of women and minorities often went unnoticed by anyone but family members and the fact that it would be only the descendants (as in my case) who know, through oral histories, about the accomplishments. Evidence of such accomplishments is naturally scattered, circumstantial and hard to find. To discourage the descendants of an otherwise notable person from creating or editing in Knowledge tends to favor a white-dominated history and works against females and minorities. In other words, the policy, as applied, appears to be sexist and racist. I have always defended Knowledge as an excellent tertiary source, but I am now concerned that the lack of diversity among editors has resulted in a cultural bias that discriminates against both females and minorities. I do not know whether Mary Bettwy was notable, but I have lost confidence in Knowledge’s definition of what is notable for females and minorities.

should lead the Powers That Be to approve notability for any winner of a major-party nomination, as well as any significant
Independent challenger. (You may define significant as you will -- Orman certainly qualified.) The Wilcox piece was intended to use independent sources to describe a new candidate for a major office in a large urban state -- and yes, he had not been notable previously (or no one had written a piece, anyway). I just think there should be some consistency concerning threshold of notability for political candidates. Thank you as always.

trial content not relevant to her biography'. So, it is relevant to Lucy DeCoutere's biography that she accused the defendant of abuse yet it is not relevant that evidence was brought to light which invalidates her accusation? Were you not biased and enforced the biographies of living person policy evenly and consistently, you would remove the content related to the
Ghomeshi trial in it's entirety. You are not acting from a neutral point of view and should face judgement by other wikipedia members.

Hi
Bearcat! I agree that most individual vegetarians should not be included in the category "vegetarianism." However, Ellen White was one of the earliest and most influential, and is the reason why the entire Seventh-Day Adventist movement is know for promoting vegetarianism. Under the

Thanks for the thoughts. I agree that random personalities who are vegetarian should not be included, although if I were setting the category criteria, thought leaders on the topic would be included. I would not have a problem with including the
