[edit] Assessment

Rated as a stub as it uses a stub template and is only two sentences long. Rated low priority as she is unlikely to have been heard of outside of gerontology. Canadian Paul 06:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability

I don't see this as being anything more than a permastub.-h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 14:09, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I don't see this as being anything more than a perma-annoying comment.Ryoung122 14:40, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Can I observe the official Wikipedia policy of no personal attacks here? That was uncalled for.-h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 13:11, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
Comment: It wasn't a personal attack. It was directed at the comment, not you personally.Ryoung122 03:33, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

113-year-old dies days after being named Japan's oldest person

Shitsu NakanoFUKUOKA -- A 113-year-old woman died at a nursing home here Sunday, just days after being named the oldest person in Japan.

The woman, Shitsu Nakano, had received the title just days after 114-year-old Yone Minagawa, formerly the world's oldest person, died on Aug. 13.

Nakano was born on Jan. 1, 1894. She had eight children, 22 grandchildren, 31 great-grandchildren, and three great-great grandchildren. (Mainichi)


Granted, not much more, but Japan has a tradition of 'short' articles (and not just for 'supercentenarians'), especially when it comes to English translations. The above article even has a photo.Ryoung122 14:43, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
