Notability
editWP:GNG requires that subjects have received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources; however the dress is only mentioned in passing in the references cited. I believe the article should be deleted but before nominating it at AfD I've asked for some additional opinions at Wikipedia:Notability/Noticeboard#Yellow_dress_of_Reese_Witherspoon. Please feel free to chip in. waggers (talk) 08:14, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
- I've added a couple references and removed the notability tag. Inclusion in top dress lists and the book 100 Unforgettable Dresses as well as other sources would seem to amount to significant coverage. Gobōnobo + c 18:57, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

I propose that this article be merged into Red carpet fashion in 2007. I think that the content in the Yellow dress of Reese Witherspoon article doesn't merit it's own article and there is no real point in having it. It shouldn't be deleted but the best place would be to put it in an article that discusses the fashion of that year, it's better suited. LADY LOTUS • TALK 20:58, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
LeaningSupport - I'm more or less on the fence about this, as the creator of the Red carpet fashion in 2007 article. Personally, I wouldn't have created this article, but I think it has JUST sufficient coverage to qualify for a standalone article - although I would be very happy to merge it into the 2007 article. It's certainly not Green Versace dress of Jennifer Lopez. Reminds me, I need to get back to doing the other red carpet fashion articles. Mabalu (talk) 22:51, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Have merged (surprisingly little to merge actually) into the other article already, so can go ahead and redirect. Mabalu (talk) 10:56, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
- Support seems like a reasonable idea to merge a short article with not much potential for expansion into a larger more comprehensive article. --kelapstick(bainuu) 13:48, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- Support per the recent conversation on my talk page. WaggersTALK 09:12, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
