[edit] Martha Alicia Porter King
Delete: Non-notable; WP:BIO Maplewooddrive 11:00, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, as Wikipedia is not a genealogical directory. Subject is non-notable except as a relative of someone who is. There is no need for a redirect for a relationship this tenuous. --Dhartung | Talk 13:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - President Gerald Ford was born in her home which is definitely notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Americasroof (talk • contribs) 13:37, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Weak keep because someone who's interested in Gerald Ford might want to know about her. However, she's not notable for any other reason. We've had AFDs for children of US presidents. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 14:26, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:DIRECTORY. Non-notable relative to someone famous. Doctorfluffy 18:06, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep In the case of exceptionally notable people like US presidents, this is not remote. If we deleted articles for immediate family of US presidents, we were very wrong to do so, and fortunately we're not bound by precedent, especially absurd precedent. She's one generation further, but his having been born in her house is enough to make her notable. . DGG (talk) 02:16, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
