Tyra Banks
A model and TV personality, a living person. Most quotes are unsourced. The rest of the quotes lack context to show how they are remarkable quotes that are of interest to more than fans. — FloNight&#9829;&#9829;&#9829; 14:03, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Borderline delete. Many quotes are not sourced and needed to removed. Banks likely has made remarkable quotes but this entry does not show it. There are a few sourced quotes but most of them come from her appearance on a TV show. Perhaps they should go on the shows entry where proper context can be explained. Or maybe not of interest to anyone but fans of the show, so should not be included on WQ. The other sourced quotes seem to be the ordinary comments that a model would say as part of their work and are not pithy enough to be included. Unless an interested user re-writes the entry based on quotes found in secondary sources, delete. If deleted, the entry can be re-created later when someone does the research.

 * Change to Keep. Excellent additions. These quotes are substantive and from high quality sources. FloNight&#9829;&#9829;&#9829; 18:22, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you! :) Cirt (talk) 18:24, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Borderline Keep, but with all unsourced quotes removed. The one sourced quote is OK, and perhaps this could be saved as a stub page that needs work. ~ UDScott 15:06, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Definitely a Keep now - good work Cirt! ~ UDScott 18:35, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Cirt (talk) 21:27, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: I removed all the unsourced quotes. I added sourced quotes from secondary sources The New York Times, The Guardian, People Magazine, Jet, and Forbes. Please take another look at the page and reevaluate. Thank you, Cirt (talk) 18:17, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Nice work! And quick, too. :-) These are a much better reflection of her uniqueness as a model and TV personality than the previous quotes. FloNight&#9829;&#9829;&#9829; 18:25, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much for the kind words. I did not even look much at the others, as I knew it would not be that hard to find sources for quotes for this page. Some sources were actually from links in the References subsection of her en.wiki article. Cirt (talk) 18:26, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep thanks to Cirt's improvements. - InvisibleSun 23:08, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, nice save. BD2412 T 05:37, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per cleanup done by . Very nice job. – RyanCross (talk ) 03:37, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Nice rescue. Although some of the quotes are shallow, having a couple relatively strong ones puts the article on sound footing. ~ Ningauble 21:22, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
