Notability?

I found this page just looking through the orphaned pages. No other pages link here, and the page is essentially just copied from the link in the list of references. I feel like it might be able to be cleaned up (and linked to) to become an OK article, but I'm not sure and wanted to get someone else's opinion. slimey01 18:33, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

OK, right after posting that I realized this is a pretty new page, but still I think most of what I said stands, and I'm still questioning the notability. slimey01 18:35, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
Seems I am unable to find a suitable place to link this page in order to remedy the Orphaned status. I'll ask another staff member for their opinion. Berrenta (talk) 18:58, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Content

I saw that the contents of this page come from http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/largest-collection-of-pokemon-memorabilia . Does that page uses copyright, or not? --~~ThePokémonFanSince1995~~-- 03:05, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Why is this needed?

It is of no value and doesn't provide enough information. - unsigned comment from Horton Hears a murder (talk • contribs)

Is someone going to answer this question? - unsigned comment from Horton Hears a murder (talk • contribs)

A World Record holder seems pretty noteworthy to me. (We've got pages for people that have won just one Championship, like Jun Hasebe and Miska Saari) And a lack of information means a page should be improved on, not that it should be deleted. TechSkylander1518 (talk) 17:39, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
How could it be improed? Horton Hears a murder (talk) 10:28, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Deletion? Yes or no?

As the page currently was before I was able to find more info, the page seemed to be very stub-like. I feel if the page could be expanded (and a larger, higher quality image of Lisa Courtney could be added) then it should be able to stay. As has been pointed out above, we have pages for those who have won one tournament. I think someone having a world record for something relating directly to Pokémon should be allowed to have their own page. The wording needs to be changed though so that it is less of a copy of the original interview that lead to this page's creation. Frozen Fennec 05:31, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
