I'm honestly not sure why this article was tagged for speedy deletion. It's a properly referenced article about a person whose notabiity is, I suppose, indicated by the sources themselves. Surtsicna (talk) 12:17, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

'Supposing' is not good enough. Did you actually read the references? All they establish is that she is married to Lord Beaulieu (who unlike most hereditary peers actully has a claim to notability) and does the usual thing that that class of person does. The Internationl ambassador thing means very very little, without evidence of these activities being significant. If she was married to Joe Schmoe she would not get-or attract- an article, & like Mrs schmoe she does not merit one.TheLongTone (talk) 15:10, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Did I read the references? As opposed to using a crystal ball to see what they say? Anyway, I don't see why there shouldn't be an article about the wife of a Joe Schmoe, if her life and actions attracted as much media coverege as Fiona's do. Surtsicna (talk) 15:30, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Ah. I did not realise you had written this. Yes, the Southern Daily Echo. I am so impressed, not. I have more coverage in national & professional journals than this. My fifteen year old son could probably get as mny hits in local rags. No, more. Waste everybodies time at articles for deletion then. TheLongTone (talk) 17:37, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
