A run-of-the-mill model who at the age of 50 started a PhD studies in psychology. There are plenty of sources confirming various aspects of her bio, but AFAIC well below the WP:GNG level. Ymblanter (talk) 07:09, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What about the political work? She was a DNC delegate from California in 2016 and 2017, that is something most people from the USA would find noteworthy for inclusion. I think that you have a good argument for why certain aspects of the entry need to be edited, but the political work I completely disagree with you about.

    • There are about 4000 delegates to the Democratic National Convention. It isn't inherently notable, and the lists of delegates aren't an in-depth source that is useful for meeting GNG. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:45, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't see any claims of meeting any WP:SNG, neither WP:ENT nor WP:NPOL are met. Most of the references don't even mention her, the exceptions being things like IMDb listings, so WP:GNG is not met either. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:45, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete totally fails notability criteria. Being a political convention delegate is most definately not a sign of notability. Not even if someone was a delegate to conventions from 1832-1972 when the conventions actually had some infleuence, and the presidential nominee was not chosen until the convention. With modern conventions just being rubber-stamp rah-rah conventions, being one of the delegates there is even less a sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:12, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Are the men on Wikipedia always this angry when they delete women's pages? Your opinions about modern political relevance is not relevant at all to the rest of the world. If you have a grievance it should be based in objective reality, not your anger towards the DNC. Superheidi (talk) 17:27, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
