[edit] Đuka Mandić
Very succintly: why does the sole fact that someone is a mother of a famous person, make her notable enough to have an article? Duja► 10:31, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - see Ekaterina Geladze; Maria Alexandrovna Ulyanova; Flora Sheldon; Alfred Roberts. All included solely because they were parents of notable people. This may seem like a classic case of WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS, but unless you want to AfD all the above articles (plus hundreds more that I can't be bothered to look up) then I suggest you don't delete this one.

- Thanks for the research. Actually, I'm not particularly keen to get this deleted; I'm more interested what the community thinks about it and similar precedents (I didn't know there were ones). Ekaterina Geladze at least, seem to have survived an ancient, but not particularly articulate, VfD. Duja► 13:31, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as notability is not transferred through generations. There's an awful lot of precedent for this, most recently this gentleman. The other parents of notable figures mentioned should by rights be AfDd. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:30, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Existence of large number of other articles with low or no encyclopedic value is not a valid reason to keep this one. Pavel Vozenilek 02:13, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
