Seems like a classic vanity page. This person has not accomplished anything noteworthy and is not notable per WP:BIO. I have never heard of any of her ejournals. Mnemopis 02:29, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Per nom. I'm from Brazil and never heard of them either. Maclaine 10:43, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 15:15, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Dozens of published articles in peer-reviewed journals. Nardman1 16:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
    • No opinion Apparently "Brain and Mind Magazine" is run by Ms. Cardoso.[1] Sources are non-independent. Nardman1 16:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep , there are enough references on the web, somebody should just bother to put them into the article and clean it up. The tone strikes like it goes against WP:NPOV and WP:COI Alf photoman 18:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • After brushing up my Portuguese a little and checking around I am changing to DELETE , most of the references I have found are self published and hardly a third party mention, and with those I cannot establish neutrality Alf photoman 12:45, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, just to make clear. Also, I cannot find any peer-reviewed publications from this person. Her Brain and Mind ejournal arguably cannot be taken seriously since it seems little different from a blog. Mnemopis 18:15, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. No reference in the Portuguese wiki, although she is from Brazil. The list of publications looks like a collection of external links. Mr.K. (talk) 19:51, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - Nobility looks possible with "She has been honoured as the first female Brazilian scientist to be invited as a lecturer by the Royal Institution of Great Britain.", but sources for that will be necessary, and the remainder may need to be significantly trimmed to what is WP:V.

  • I wouldn't call this exactly notable, even if it were verifiable. Consider that the purpose of the Royal Institution (not to be confounded with the Royal Society) is the diffusion of science. According to this purpose, they hold many lectures every month. Mr.K. (talk) 17:45, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
