[edit] Maria Louisa Bustill

from VfD:

Mother of someone quite notable (Paul Robeson), and daughter of someone mildly notable (Charles Hicks Bustill), but seems to have no notability of her own. 55 hits, most about Paul. Niteowlneils 04:52, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, genealogy. Wyss 06:02, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable. --Viriditas | Talk 06:49, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Good article, and sufficiently notable IMO. If we merge and redirect to Paul Robeson I think that article would get cumbersome. Andrewa 10:16, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • Keep; I agree. Samaritan 10:52, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • A person could make a case that she is very marginally notable. I would not be much inclined to agree, but the article's quality almost sways me to keep. No vote, though. Everyking 12:07, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. --JuntungWu 13:03, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable enough and a good article. --Deathphoenix 15:21, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not notable in and of herself. And when did "American Quaker" become a race or an ethnicity? RickK 00:21, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, while Paul Robeson is notable, his mother was not. It also looks like geneaology. Quakerism is not a race or ethnicity. Megan1967 00:44, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Not notable. Philip 03:16, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup. Pedant
  • Keep or merge to Paul Robeson, but don't lose this information. -- Jmabel | Talk 19:13, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. This sort of article is why 'notability' is not a primary criterion for deletion - David Gerard 20:06, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep it and do not merge. —RaD Man (talk) 23:27, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non notable, no matter whose mother she is. JoaoRicardo 03:19, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep or at least merge with something. A non-white woman going to university in the U.S. in the 1870s seems remakrable in itself (although I don't know how common that was) and together with the family connections creates perhaps some mild notability. / up+land 08:01, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
