Woman who has weight problems and as a result has been featured in that ever reliable publication The Daily Mail. Also badly written. Barney the barney barney (talk) 22:52, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Poorly written and non-notable. Jusdafax 23:00, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There is significant no of people search internet about her. You can edit this page and make more useful to users. Poorly written because of language and technical barrier. Editing Wikipedia is technically difficult for me (I don't know coding and there is no easy tools like gmail ..--Heaviest567 (talk) 23:08, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep - News coverage outside the DM and a cleanup establish minimal notability.--Auric talk 01:15, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep per Auric. Note that Ruffinelli's notability lies not in her weight, but the fact that she is reported to hold the world record for the largest hips. Unfortunately, I could not find anything in the Guinness World Records, and I don't know how reliable my source is. Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 01:20, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- This is not exactly some kind of record to be proud of. Additionally, it could well be a violation of the policies of WP:BLP. Jusdafax 03:14, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think this is a BLP concern, as Ruffinelli states in multiple interviews that she is rather proud of her figure. Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 04:04, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep Whether or not we think this is a notable distinction, the amount of recognition she has gotten amounts to notability. The announcement of her "world record" got coverage in mainstream publications like Huffington Post. She even rated a mention at Emirates 24/7. --MelanieN (talk) 17:07, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
