• Strong Keep The first 2 references serve to establish notability. This is a well written article with sources. There is no reason to delete this. Mr.Z-mantalk¢ 20:34, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
• Comment. This person is the subject of multiple independent published sources, which ususally satisfies Wikipedia:Notability. However, if she's simply a very premature baby, then she may be newsworthy but not notable in the long term (cf. "Notability is generally permanent"). Only one of the cited news stories actually states that she is the most premature baby on record to survive; if this can be established securely (which I think takes more than an unsourced sentence in a newspaper), then the article should definitely be kept.

  • How about national and international news coverage? Mr.Z-mantalk¢ 21:05, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. The Newsweek article cited by Mr.Z-man provides sufficient evidence that Amillia Taylor's case is notable and likely to remain so. EALacey 21:25, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

• Keep as per sources given; we can rethink as and when a younger (fresher? newer? not sure what the term is) baby is born - iridescenti (talk to me!) 22:21, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
• keep this is sufficiently notable in view of the sources. DGG 05:14, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• keep She's notable due to the circumstances of her birth and likely status in the record books. --Bookworm857158367 16:01, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep The survival of this person has the potential to have significant impact upon the abortion debate, as many moderates on both sides of the issue argue that abortion should be illegal past the point of viability. Amillia Taylor pushes the point of viability earlier into gestation than any other baby on record. Her survival has had an impact on the abortion debate, and monitoring her development should definitely be of interest to the Wiki community. This entry should be kept, and periodically updated. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zmaj101 (talk • contribs) 17:50, 17 April 2007 (UTC).
