From WP:RfD:

  • Amanda Reed redirects to her husband. if there is an article here, it should be about her. Jeremybub 20:45, 25 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
    • Even if she should have an article, a relevant redirect is better than nothing. And unless she did something important besides her marriage I'm not sure she should have an article; a redirect to where she's mentioned would be best in that case. --fvw* 21:01, 25 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
    • Keep redirect - her notability is solely based on her being her husband's wife. His will asked for Reed College to be established, and when he died, she was the executor of these wishes. There's not enough to warrant an article of her own. Proto t c 13:37, 29 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Redirect to Simeon Gannett Reed edit

I've redirected this article to Simeon Gannett Reed, because:

  1. Half of article was really more about Simeon Gannett Reed, and that information was already in his article.
  2. Other half of article is really about Reed College, and that information is already in the college's article.
  3. All that's really left is her date of birth and death.
  4. I don't think she's really notable (Wikipedia WP:NOTEability, not notability as used in normal English) individually.

If you diagree, feel free to revert and discuss here. Would you mind pinging me on my talk page if you do? I'm here so infrequently it's liable to drop off my watchlist. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:12, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sorry about the ratings, I didn't even notice they were there, nor would I have had a clue what to change them to if I had noticed. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:48, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
