Non-Notable person, all information is actually about her husband. She married, wrote a book and produced a film about Ian Curtis Duggy 1138 (talk) 08:53, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep/merge - The fact that she is the author of this book and has writing and producing credit for an award-winning film based on her book and the over 70,000 G-hits, I don't think you can legitimately delete this article based on notability. There is the possibility of merging it with Ian Curtis, though I think that's only a distant possibility.

I get a little less than 70,000... and on the first page:

2x Interviews with her about her husband.

1x The article in question.

1x Peter Hook mentioning that she hated the film she was one of the producers on about her husband.

1x An imdb entry on her as producer of the film based on the the book she wrote about her husband.

1x Amazon entry for her book about her husband.

1x her bio on a fan site dedicated to her husband.

1x an article about her book about her husband being rereleased in connection to the film that she helped produce about her husband.

1x page about someone else entirely -> an American educator.

I still don't see any notabilty beyond who she married. Duggy 1138 (talk) 08:10, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

She appears notable on her own; I came up with about 60,000 google hits, many individuals with markedly fewer have wikis, I don't see this scenario somehow being different because she's a widow. As an author and producer, and yes widow to a famous musician, I think she warrants her own article. With that said, this article does need to be elaborated upon.

• Comment - no need to merge it with Ian Curtis all the information is already there. Duggy 1138 (talk) 11:21, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect - either to
  Deborah Curtis to Ian Curtis and redirect Touching from a Distance as well. Jasynnash2 (talk) 12:31, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply
