Non-notable person. Sources are WP:ROUTINE coverage about her death. There is nothing that makes this person significant. » Shadowowl | talk 14:12, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Notable per GNG. gidonb (talk) 21:09, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Passes WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. WP:ROUTINE is irrelevant, as it refers to events, and the subject here is not an event. Andrew D. (talk) 22:30, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Passes the GNG, multiple sources over the years (heavy in 07 and 08 albeit) ^Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 02:28, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy keep Clumsy OP. This source, for example, predates her death by more than a month. She was the oldest person on earth for several month and the oldest person in Japan for over two years, so I find it hard to believe more sources like the above that just happen no longer to be online, dating to 2005 and 2006, could not be located.

@Shadowowl: You don't appear to have even read the first sentence of our article, which claims she was the oldest living person from January 2007 to August of the same year, but your OP comment above implies you think there is nothing significant about her and the sources are just routine obituaries ... in English ... for someone in a rural part of Japan ... !? It's clumsy stuff like this that gives fodder to disruptive "keepist" editors like Andrew and some others whom I will not name because they haven't !voted here yet. The fact that they are guilty of much, much worse (and clumsier) comments is no more an excuse for you than it is for them when you pull stuff like this.

• @Hijiri88: I withdraw this nomination. I will close it. Shadowowl on mobile (talk) 12:20, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
