Since the article survived AfD I removed the notability tag and replaced it with one asking for more references. Me-123567-Me ( talk) 22:11, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
As the RfC below has closed, I will say that I think her notability is cemented now that she is the interim leader of the federal Greens. She has notability as a prior candidate, long time journalist, then deputy leader and now leader. I think tagging this for notability or considering it for deletion now is preposterous, but I don't think starting a second RfC about the tag would be particularly helpful, so I will leave it for now, and see if others' views change over time.-- Darryl Kerrigan ( talk) 21:29, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Given that this article "survived" AfD as "no consensus," is it appropriate to leave the notability tag on it? Me-123567-Me ( talk) 23:37, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
"As written, appears to fail WP:GNG." The state of the article doesn't have any impact on notability, such as if it doesn't list enough sources or isn't written in a certain way. There are a ton of independent sources available and this easily passes WP:GNG.or
she has a ton of independent reliable sources availableor
While I don't see how her political career meets WP:NPOL yet, I think that...or
Coverage in the media will continue to improve, as will our article.These !votes are clearly based at least in part on coverage that is not yet in the article (either coverage they believe exists out there somewhere, or coverage that will appear in the future.) That coverage still needs to be added, so the tag should remain until it is; and if it fails to appear in the next few months, another WP:AFD will be necessary (since the rationale for keeping in the previous one will clearly be in question.) -- Aquillion ( talk) 10:12, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
I agree with Barkeep49's marking it reviewed. First, I think that major party leaders, even if interim, pass WP:NPOL, and in Canada I would classify the Green Party as a major party (using the determining factor that they have elected folks at the Federal level or major regional/province positions). Second, I think she passes WP:GNG: the CBC article, the CTV article (ref #5) are both in-depth, while refs #1 and #2, while not in-depth, are also not trivial. I'm just going by what's currently in the article, not doing a WP:BEFORE, as I'm simply evaluating the review process, not the AfD. Onel5969 TT me 14:27, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
Some interesting text I noticed at https://www.votejoannroberts.ca/terms-of-service
Based on that, we might see profiles there which have the commons license, and perhaps one where someone is posing with her? Worth a look, since this really could benefit from a picture. Olivia comet ( talk) 10:46, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

So I could upload the entire photo to the commons, and then I think we could do a crop of just her from it to use here? Olivia comet ( talk) 10:50, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
