Sorry for deleting the tags; I'm new to this and kind of just wanted to see what would happen. Thanks for restoring them. As per the notability concern, isn't a Playboy model and reality television persona acceptable under the guidelines? Briaberger (talk) 18:53, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Why does it say she is a HERMAPHRODITE? Unfounded so I'm deleting it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bberger89 (talk • contribs) 04:42, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

What is the purpose of deleting this page?? The page doesn't hurt anything. It only adds to other articles and wikipedia as a whole. NO reason to delete it. (NEEDS TO BE SIGNED)

Please don't take anything personal about having the page deleted. I have worked on pages in the past that ultimately were deleted or merged with other pages. I am not recommending this article be deleted on personal grounds to start with. I just don't see the purpose of having an entire page for someone who really is not notable. I did look into the reality shows and other things she has appeared in to establish notability or lack thereof and I could not find anything that sets her apart from the other girls and guys she appeared with. If you go to wiki pages for other reality tv shows there are sections about what the guests are doing now (that is after the series is over) with short summaries that go something like: Jane Doe - after the series was over she returned to Uni to resume studies in biology; she also takes part in the university theatre. So this has been my recommendation the entire time to delete her page and just add the summaries to the reality tv series page with all the other girls and guys she appeared with. Redrok84 (talk) 20:13, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Not notable? Are you nuts? This woman has one of the highest Q ratings of women on reality TV in the past year. OK, she might be a Jane Doe in Geekville, but not among the millions who watch reality TV. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.143.31.51 (talk) 00:01, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Websites

I don't believe that the site listed as the official Megan Hauserman site is in fact the official site. When you follow the link it goes to a random, networking type. Missjessica254 (talk) 20:25, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Someone vandlised this page saying that she didnt not win, but was in the final four. People already know she's in the final four, but how do they know if she lost? They havent even showen who won and who lost. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 08wwe (talk • contribs) 02:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Catfight/Assault

Why the need to add something like this to a BLP? The continued re-addition without discussion is prohibited on Wikipedia as per Edit warring. In particular, I count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 attempts to include this gossip, all of which have been reverted by other editors. As I stated in my last edit, please discuss here before reverting something which has already been reverted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Plastikspork (talk • contribs) 04:01, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Furthermore it's already been established, some time ago, that TMZ probably isn't an appropriate source for this sort of thing in BLPs. See here for the relevant discussion. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 05:44, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

I added the LA Times article, which is a WP:RS. It is a highly notable event cover by VH1 news, The Guardian, the New York Daily News, and two articles in the LA Times. Search http://news.google.com/ for "Megan Hauserman" and "fight," I get 27 hits, substitute "fight" for "assault" and its 18 hits. This reporting is more than all her other press for a single event.Tgreach (talk) 19:49, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

This is silly. User:Rlogan2 removed the one sentence mention of the "fight" writing "may be in times article but previously mentioned it wont be listed here." This user did not explain this revert. Thus, I replied with the above.

Since there is around thirty press mentions from WP:RS, I readded the material. This same userremoved it for a second time, again failing to explain why a one sentence sourced claim on an on-going news issue is not included. Removing sourced material without discussion is not helpful. Can that user explain why the following single sentence:

According to the Los Angeles Times, Osbourne is being investigated for assaulting Megan after she described Ozzy Osbourne as a "brain-dead rock star" during the taping.^[1]

was removed from the charm school section? Tgreach (talk) 22:21, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Do not delete the reality television scorecard!

It has been used for other reality television contestents as well. If a reality television contestant's wikipedia page does not have one, add one. It simplifies the information for the viewer. Andrew097 (talk) 4:09, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

I believe it's WP:TRIVIA and should be contained in the summary section as prose, as per WP guidelines. Plastikspork (talk) 02:46, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

"This guideline does not suggest always avoiding lists in favor of prose. Some information is better presented in list format." In this case, some of the information is not listed in the article and is "better presented in list format" to quote the little page you attached. "This guideline does not suggest the inclusion or exclusion of any information; it only gives style recommendations. Issues of inclusion are addressed by content policies." KEY WORD: RECOMMENDATIONS. By deleting it you are excluding information and you are in violation of wikipedia guidelines. "A trivia section is one that contains a disorganized and "unselective" list." Is this list disorganized? unselective? I don't think so.

So please stop deleting the table, I think I have made it obvious that this table can be included. THANKS Andrew097 (talk) 03:41, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Again, I disagree. This is a WP:BLP, and this "scorecard" is not a notable characteristic of the individual. VH1 is not keeping score. Scoring is not part of the shows in question. It's either WP:TRIVIA or WP:OR or WP:LISTCRUFT. If you wish to pursue dispute resolution, I would be happy to participate. Plastikspork (talk) 14:49, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Go ahead then, the fact of the matter is that you can rename it to call it a "table" instead of a "scorecard" if you really want to. It doesn't matter if VH1 is not keeping score, WIKIPEDIA keeps scores on their websites such as the I Love Money website. It's not a matter of keeping score, it's is a matter of including information. Also, because people like you who think that your way is the only way, you leave out information about the person's progress in shows and why they are the select few who deserve Wikipedia pages. Once again I'll pull out these quotes to prove my point: "This guideline does not suggest the inclusion or exclusion of any information..." "This guideline does not suggest always avoiding lists in favor of prose. Some information is better presented in list format." In this case, the information that you are so opposed to, but actually only adds to the article, and you insist on leaving this valuable information out, is better presented in list/table format. Andrew097 (talk) 03:35, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Seeing as though I was the person who deleted the table in the first place, sparking such a ridiculous debate, I figured I might as well weigh in as to why. Not only does this " scorecard " look simply ridiculous, it is clearly unneeded. As it was in the summary of the shows she was in is fine. Are we personally going around to every reality " star " and input their scorecard?? No, we're not and the reason we won't is because there is no reason whatsoever. You say that it makes viewing easier, however it truly doesn't. In fact, I would be so bold as to call the scorecard junk. Namaste. --Cheers----EmperorofPeopleEverywhere (talk) 01:06, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
