result is AFD closed as keep, so Jeanette Dousdebes Rubio is counted as notable. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:23, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Is Jeanette Dousdebes Rubio sufficiently notable in her own right to have a separate article in Wikipedia?

Comments

No - Her notability as a former cheerleader of the Dallas Cowboys is not notable enough to warrant an article in Wikipedia. Her notability emanates solely for being married to Marco Rubio, and as such the article should be merged and redirected there. - Cwobeel (talk) 04:42, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No, per WP:NOTINHERITED, should be merged to Marco Rubio. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:49, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, per WP:GNG. How does NOTINHERITED apply? When was Marco Rubio ever part of the Miami Dolphins cheerleader team. This woman has been a fixture at that team. And anyone understanding US cheerleader traditions and status will know that it is very notable. Also she has done work afterwards which indicates notability. Clear Keep article.--BabbaQ (talk) 00:16, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Are you serious? Being a cheerleader is not notable whatsoever. - Cwobeel (talk) 01:53, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We only note the teams that have won cheerleading championships, not the captains or others on the team. This person was not a "fixture", she wasn't even long-term; she was temporary for one year.
--William Allen Simpson (talk) 13:32, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, per WP:GNG. Simple as that. - Informant16 January 11, 2016
No - Being a cheerleader does not qualify one for having a page. She is only notable for being Rubio's wife, but even that falls under WP:NOTINHERITED. Merge/redirect to Rubio's page.Meatsgains (talk) 18:45, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No - She is not notable just because she was a former cheerleader for an NFL team. If every cheerleader for an NFL football team had their own Wikipedia article, we would have a problem. Like an above user has already said, her notability stems from her marriage to Marco Rubio, therefore the article should be merged/redirected to his page (per WP:NOTINHERITED). Cheers, Comatmebro User talk:Comatmebro 18:08, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No. If there were any sourcing here which were specifically about her cheerleading, dated contemporaneously to her time as a cheerleader (i.e. in the 1990s), then I'd be willing to say she was notable and therefore keepable as a cheerleader. But if the only sourcing you have to offer is "oh, by the way, she used to be a cheerleader in the 1990s" as background information in sources dated to the 2010s that are covering her in the context of being a politician's wife, then that's not the kind of sourcing it takes to make her notable as a cheerleader. Bearcat (talk) 19:06, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes per GNG. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 01:21, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

GNG may apply for keeping the article in an AFD, but here the proposal is to merge, not to delete. - Cwobeel (talk) 01:53, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge – Article page says this is a merge discussion only. I vote for merge as most of her notability rides on her husbands coattails. Cheers! {{u|Checkingfax}} {Talk} 03:10, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as proposed.
--William Allen Simpson (talk) 13:32, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect All the sources in the article are either focused on Marco Rubio or on Jeanette as the wife of Marco Rubio. Not seeing anything that confers notability outside of her marriage. Also not seeing anything that needs to be merged that is not already n the other article so this is a !vote for a straight redirect (probably aimed at Marco Rubio#personal life). AIRcorn (talk) 07:27, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No, redirect is only viable option at this point. FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 00:19, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't graduate college

An ip, with a total of ONE edit, added this juicy tabloid tib bit, that the subject didn't graduate. Yes, it looks like the subject was ONE semester short. We don't point this out unless it is in some type of larger context. She attended this school. Period. Please don't fall into the silly season bull shit pushed by an SPA ip edit. Thank you, --Malerooster (talk) 04:09, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Date of birth

The article listed the wrong date of birth. (It was actually her husband's.) I've searched for the correct date of birth online, but I can't find it. Jonathunder (talk) 16:46, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

She gives interviews.

I have removed content suggesting that she declines to give interviews, because here's one for example.Zigzig20s (talk) 06:49, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
