Janet Norton Lee Bouvier Auchincloss Morris[edit]
Is being the mother of a First Lady sufficient notability to make for an encyclopedia article? --Carnildo 08:26, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- It's probably at least somewhat more notable than being Homer Simpson's fictional grandfather. - Nunh-huh 08:43, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- she often stood in for her daughter as hostess for official White House functions. I'd love to see more info on that. At least she looks more notable than the other family members. No vote yet. Mgm|(talk) 09:02, Mar 17, 2005 (UTC)
- In general, being a parent/child of a notable person doesn't make you notable, so merge. Radiant_* 09:06, Mar 17, 2005 (UTC)
- Agree with mergist approach. JFW | T@lk 14:25, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep or merge. It's a bit long to merge and does okay as a separate article, I think - David Gerard 20:28, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep or merge. Lean toward keep: there isn't much here yet, but I believe a lot more could be written about her. There's probably more than a bit to be said about her marriage to novelist Louis Auchincloss, too. Yes, her fame is mostly at one remove, but it's at one remove in so many directions as to probably merit an article. -- Jmabel | Talk 00:30, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep or merge. Probably notable enough; probably more could be written. The title has to go, though: stringing together every married surname a woman ever had isn't proper Wikipedia format. Janet Lee Bouvier is probably sufficient title-wise, since realistically that's the most likely search term. Bearcat 15:38, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
