This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

User:82.171.97.163, thanks for the additions to the article. I'm guessing that you are friends with Izzy Westbury on Facebook, and that there is something there about her broken arm. However to those that aren't friends with her there is nothing, and statements made (even by the person) on Facebook, Twitter etc don't really meet the reliable source criteria on Wikipedia. I'd love to be able to include this information, but without a source it can't really be added to a biography of a living person. Harrias talk 17:09, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
Did she really live on Planet Nine? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.219.6.114 ( talk) 03:47, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
Another of my early Good articles. This one has had some back and forth over the past year; it spent over a year in a similar state to present (with a lot of the GA content removed) before I noticed and restored it. However, my original work isn't that great, and is out of date. The more up-to-date state it is currently in lacks comprehensiveness for GA status, but I'm not really interested in making the two marry up any more. Maybe a happy medium can be found, but not by me. Harrias talk 10:11, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
Eelhovercraft, can you explain why you feel it necessary to remove so much information? Harrias talk 18:05, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to accessSpike 'em ( talk) 16:14, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
Harrias, yes. It is a long article about a not very high profile person using obscure citations which can not be verified by any public search and about a very narrow period of this person's life. It should be more succinct with better, verifiable sources. It is also poorly written with sentences which are too long, repetition and subjective inferences. Eelhovercraft 10:09, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
Whilst we're at it, should the article be moved to Isabelle rather than Izzy? It seems all her newspaper articles use Isabelle, as does her twitter page (though her handle is still @izzywestbury). Spike 'em ( talk) 13:56, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
