Cynthia Todd is not notable at all. Furthermore, this article has a complete lack of verifiability since WP:IS states that a person's employer cannot be used as an independent source. NJ Wine (talk) 00:58, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

  • Neutral... for now. Full of conflicts of interests (can't find sources about this person in widespread sources), likely violations of how biographies of living people must be (private life?), possible self-awareness (not that I'm accusing the subject of self-promotion), and... I don't know. However, there must be an explanation for this article. --George Ho (talk) 01:13, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

::I believe that the creator of the article is probably someone (e.g., student, parent) affiliated with Westlake High School. The article contains a large amount of personal and professional info about Cynthia Todd which is not available through any website that I could find. From what I've read, I'm thinking that she is a popular administrator (yearbook advisor) at the high school, and someone there decided that she deserved a Wikipedia article. I view this kind of article as a violation of Wikipedia's noble cause policy -- basically being a good person and doing good things in a community does not make a person notable.

:::*sigh* Why are essays policies? Nevertheless, "noble cause" must be considered. --George Ho (talk) 02:47, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

::Totally unfortunate that she has no potenetial to be known to published reliable sources. Delete. --George Ho (talk) 14:27, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete. Being a high school teacher/yearbook adviser is not a sign of notability. In fact, it would be difficult for a person to achieve Wikipedia-level notability in that occupation. Most likely this article was written by one of the subject's students as a tribute to their teacher, but it doesn't belong in this encyclopedia. Arguably this could be a speedy delete because I'm not even sure the article contains a claim to notability. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:14, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete verging on speedy under A7. Zero coverage in reliable sources, utterly non-notable person. Yunshui  09:36, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete As above; not notable at all. Give your teacher an apple if you like her, not a Wikipedia page. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:45, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete -- I thought speedy even. No coverage. Metropolitan90's argument is sound. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 13:59, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
