It's unclear what's going on here, if it's a mistake or a hoax. I cannot find any WP:RS on the named individual, on google or google news, or in the references provided. However, there is an individual who closely matches the name "Meredith" instead of "Mitcham" who is in some of the references. The children listed in the infobox also have the name Meredith. I would normally change the name and correct it, however the creator's username is similar to the article name, and the name is used a number of times. I want to be sure it's an error and not something else before correcting it. Shadowjams (talk) 04:15, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Refs don't mention her, article was created by somebody called Mitchamz, her husband I'm guessing. Conical Johnson (talk) 04:27, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I wouldn't worry too much about a name change in a female, they happen all the time due to marriage or divorce. I see here that her name at one point was "Lydia Mitcham Meredith". However, the four references listed do not constitute in-depth significant coverage to establish notability for her so the article should be deleted. Only three are independent and although she is quoted the articles aren't about her and don't discuss her in any depth. Drawn Some (talk) 04:28, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment That probably explains the name issue. I hadn't found the husband's name, which clears things up. The sources included are reliable, but they don't indicate enough notability. Shadowjams (talk) 04:42, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete. I find her quoted in a couple places like here and here and here for the same thing. Mentioned here. All ]

- Delete - No significant coverage in third-party sources. vecia 19:17, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Also the image is a joke. The clothing appears to have been painted on in MSPaint. To the closing admin, when this article is deleted, that image needs to be taken care of as well. vecia 19:19, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Sounds like a very nice, non-notable person. Niteshift36 (talk) 23:11, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
