==Finding significant coverage==
You may be able to access additional databases of articles from reliable sources through your local library's website. Many libraries subscribe to various databases that can be accessed through their website, but only by people with a valid library card number. You can also search for references at http://www.findarticles.com or http://www.accessmylibrary.com I hope this will allow you to use the phrase I like to use in AFD discussions: "Keep. I added some references."
==Nobles and inherent notability==
: ''This was written as part of the discussion at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Agnes of Anhalt-Dessau]].''
Outside of situations where the holder of a title of notability was automatically included in their country's parliament (as was historically true for members of the peerage of the United Kingdom and its predecessor countries), I agree that notability is not inherent in a noble title. But [[WP:NOTINHERITED]] can be misleading. People with the advantages that come with being born into a country's nobility (education, wealth, connections, sometimes high military rank) are likelier than most to do things that will make them notable. Finding the evidence of that notability for someone who died a long time ago can be difficult, though, particularly for people outside the English-speaking world. I found out about [[Agnes of Anhalt-Dessau]]'s book from a brief reference in the [[Los Angeles Times]], for example, and at first I couldn't find it in a library catalog because I was looking under the English-language title (the book was published in German and later in Italian, but apparently not in English). Still, because members of the nobility historically received the kind of attention that movie stars do today, there is still some chance of establishing notability for them.
Many articles on people like [[Agnes of Anhalt-Dessau]] start out as if they were copied from a genealogy book. This fact shouldn't distract us from the possibility that notability by Wikipedia standards can be established, and should probably discourage us from tagging such an article for deletion without a careful search.
I would also say that someone who is '''created''' a noble, rather than acquiring a title by birth or marriage, is almost certainly notable both for other accomplishments and from the media coverage that the title's creation would have caused.

==tagging articles==
Hi. I have been doing quite a bit of work on wikifying articles and a number of articles i have expanded using google et al.
When a page is next to empty (and has been since 2009) I feel that its up to the author to do something about it. Just my 2c [[User:Gbawden|Gbawden]] ([[User talk:Gbawden|talk]]) 13:52, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
