The result was Keep but stub and rewrite from scratch.. If maintaining a NPOV article proves impossible than the next discussion will undoubtedly reach a different conclusion. Spartaz Humbug! 05:47, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

I've never heard of her before, but after some googling it seems she passes the criteria of "must receive significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
- Long article on leading Hungarian web portal index.hu (mainly about her movie being crap)
- Another article on the same portal (about the same movie, while in production)
- Another long article on index.hu, this time about her quackery
- Another article on a different portal, again about quackery
- Article about her suing national airline for discrimination, on the second most important web portal in Hungary
- Detailed biography on nol.hu (Nol was the website of Népszabadság, a well-known left-leaning newspaper allegedly closed down by Fidesz)
Based on these, she is notable (although I'm not going to miss the article if it gets deleted). – Alensha talk 17:01, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
- Keep notable fraudster. Plenty of coverage in English and foreigb media sources. FloridaArmy ( talk) 21:09, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Plenty of RS there establishing notability as a fraud. Deathlibrarian ( talk) 02:13, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
- Delete The article is written as a defence of the subjects work, and clearly fails NPOV guidelines. We lack the level of good coverage needed to create a truly balanced article. When articles get into special pleading, and the subject is a living person, the only option is to delete.

- That may be true, but that doesn't make the subject any less notable. It should be re-written to follow NPOV, not deleted. Deathlibrarian ( talk) 09:03, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Well supported by reliable sources and quite notable. There may be a NPOV problem, but this can be fixed. L293D ( ☎ • ✎) 13:22, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Just about enough substantive reliable secondary sources - specifically the Seattle Times article (regional press but WP:RS) and the "Science Left Behind" book, published by PublicAffairs, a reputable publisher. The federal court case, though a primary source, is worth noting as well. Fiachra10003 ( talk) 23:06, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
