Fails WP:ANYBIO. Being the sister of someone notable does not make her notable. She has achieved nothing in life. FromCzech (talk) 04:55, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I've gone through the articles on de.wiki and cs.wiki, did a little other searching, probably meets WP:BASIC. Kafka's life is so heavily covered, and she is covered in most of his biographies. I don't think the fact she never achieved anything herself really is relevant to whether or not she's notable enough for inclusion. Valereee (talk) 06:41, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: I don't see notability either. "Sister of a famous person who died in a concentration camp" is a bit of a stretch for notability here. I could see this being covered in a memorial site; I'm not even sure what she would be notable for in order to have a wikipedia article. She went to school, got married and was close to her children. Maybe gets a mention in the Kafka article's biography section, but that's about all. Oaktree b (talk) 13:31, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge and redirect to Franz Kafka, if any information is deemed encyclopedic enough. Otherwise redirect. Jdcooper (talk) 21:26, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I think Valereee has put her finger on it. Notability is not dependent on "achievements" but on sources, and GK has adequate sourcing as a result of the huge literature of Kafka.. Ingratis (talk) 08:30, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    change to Merge/Redirect, with reluctance - I haven't been able to find anything on her at all independently of Kafka, so although it remains correct that notability is not achievement-based but source-based, in this instance there apparently just aren't the sources. Nevertheless she is a plausible search term, so WP:ATD. Ingratis (talk) 11:28, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
