Non-notable oldster. A couple of obituaries and GRG statistics are just routine coverage, and the desperate attempt to fluff this up by sticking in links to completely unrelated articles about other Puerto Rican people shows that there's WP:NOPAGE here.

Delete This article fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO1E because there is only WP:ROUTINE coverage of her that fails to demonstrate notability and there is no notability guideline that "the oldest x" is notable. The content of the article is pretty much just trivia fluff about her family and the documentation she had proving her age claim. There is almost nothing actually said about her in an article that is supposed to be about her, which demonstrates how the article fails WP:NOPAGE. Her age, life dates, and nationality are already recorded on four different lists, where they are easier to view, so this permanent WP:PERMASTUB is not needed.

Delete – Once the trivia about longevity stats is removed, there remains nothing of substance about this person's life. Her entry in the various "oldest people" tables is enough to convey the only thing that she is notable for, i.e. her exceptional longevity. — JFG ^talk 23:25, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Could people please refrain from using ageist derogatory terms like oldster. It is disrepectful. I have no opinion whether or not this article is kept or deleted, but this ongoing use of a debasing term on several of the AfD is unencyclopedic and unprofessional, if not bigoted.

Oh, put a sock in it; it's just an informal term. "Unencyclopedic"? A meaningless term, and besides this discussion isn't part of the encyclopedia. "Unprofessional"? We're not professionals. "Bigoted"? Get a grip. E Eng 03:06, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Dear User:EEng What is the "it" that you refer to, please, where I should put the item of footware? I'm sorry if I misunderstand, but I thought this was an encyclopedia and that the AfD was public. Sorry. Forgive me if I misunderstood. Yes it is true that "oldster" seems like a bigoted statement from my cultural standpoint, and I now understand that it is not derogatory from your standpoint. What is the item that you are suggesting for me to grip? Thank you. Netherzone (talk) 04:30, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete/merge to an appropriate list. Article even more vacuous than usual, especially after you discount the history of Puerto Rican education and the fascinating (and dubious) information that two people were "interviewed together" for the census a hundred years ago. E Eng 03:06, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/redirect to List of supercentenarians from the United States#List of people in lieu of deletion. There is enough sourced biographical information in the article to support a merge. Cunard (talk) 03:17, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
