The point is that isn't particularly fame. The incident is famous, the person's pretty much only famous in association with the incident. For a local example, there's an article at [[Essjay controversy]] but only a pointer at [[Ryan Jordan]] (which is a disambig).
The Crystal whatsit article is now a redirect to the incident of fame (and I'm fine with that; I zapped it because the single-purpose editors were so rabid about it). But her *grade point averages* sure as hell don't belong in the article. That's what I mean by immaculately sourced attack article. Her GPAs? What on earth?
Crap, sorry, computer fouled up. There is a line. Seung-Hui Cho is famous for one incident yet gets a lengthy article filling in details well beyond what he is notable for, for instance. (I know he's dead; there's probably a better example out there.)
