Hypothetical scenario:

    There's a late night TV minister who specializes in polyglot
examinations of particular Biblical
    words and phrases, focusing on the nexus between Hebrew, Greek and
Latin translations,
    but also going into related languages like Aramaic, Arabic, and
sometimes even English.

    He marries a pretty younger woman who can't sing very well, but
after each sermon she sings
    solo anyway. Before passing from cancer, he ordains his wife as a
minister and bequeathed
    his ministry to her. After a hiatus, she began ministering to his
former congregation on
    broadcast TV.  She tries unsuccessfully to copy the late
minister's style, as she naturally
    lacks his substantial erudition and gravitas, eventually finding
her own style.

The question for the list that this scenario raises is: is this person
(the wife) notable?  There is no question as to the notablity of the
husband, but the wife, by virtue of her career choice, appears to be
likewise. Would there be an objection to the creation of an article
about the wife, and if so, on what policy grounds?
