Notability of Carmela santucci

A tag has been placed on Carmela santucci requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Matty - (Talk) 01:09, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Carmela Santucci

Re your message: The burden is on you the editor of the page to supply the references to why she is notable for inclusion on Wikipedia. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 01:12, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re your messages: I didn't delete the article because you are not an administrator. Far from it. To answer your original question, to establish notability, I recommend that include references to articles about her. Ideally, if you can provide reference to an article mainly about her like an interview, that would be best. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 01:25, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I read the Vanity Fair and New York Times articles and there is very little about Carmela Santucci in either article. She worked for Follieri for two weeks, but there is no evidence that she was a whistleblower. Neither article states that her email prompted the scandal to be known to the public or prompted the Yucaipa lawsuit. The closest is the Vanity Fair article stating that her email "deepened Yucaipa’s concerns", but that does not mean it initiated the whole thing or was a critical component. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:04, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
