Move Bridget Ziegler into her own page?

[edit]

Currently Bridget redirects here, but some articles focus solely on Bridget.

E.g

https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/news/politics/2023/12/04/bridget-ziegler-what-know-about-wife-gop-leader-christian-ziegler-accused-rape/71797886007/

https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/news/politics/2023/12/06/bridget-ziegler-resigns-position-at-conservative-leadership-institute/71829708007

The redirect may also reflect gender bias, so I wonder if it would make sense to move Bridget into her own page. If there are no objections, I will start a draft YordleSquire (talk) 18:45, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

sorry not solely focus, mainly focus YordleSquire (talk) 18:46, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I created both this article and Bridget's redirect. Please don't suggest "gender bias" without cause. The chair of the Florida GOP is clearly notable. A schoolboard member may or may not be. I have not taken the time yet to dig into it, but Bridget may be notable for the schoolboard and M4L. Are there sources of her from prior to this scandal that would confer notability? – Muboshgu (talk) 18:54, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I didn't mean to accuse you or any specific editor of gender bias.
I was more commenting on women being known in reference to their husbands as still being somewhat of a societal norm.
I think Christian is more known locally in Florida, whereas M4L has a national presence. If Bridget is not notable on her own, it's arguable that she should have been redirected to M4L instead. Although maybe not now because the scandal involves her husband. YordleSquire (talk) 03:45, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In terms of articles about her from before the controversy that could confer notability:

There are a couple more RS articles about Ziegler being picked by Desantis for the Disney special district. YordleSquire (talk) 03:55, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
And there is a consistent theme across the articles that Bridget is the most prominent/notable of the selection. YordleSquire (talk) 04:00, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
