Some coverage, but not enough for notability. Most are mentions of things she's involved with. Oaktree b (talk) 00:06, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

• Keep per WP:BASIC - I have been reviewing coverage and have started to update the article; Nacpil appears to be nationally and internationally known as an activist, particularly for climate justice, and appears to be recognized as such by national and international press and scholarly sources. Due to the amount of coverage over time and the breadth of her activism since the 1980s/1990s, further expansion of the article seems possible based on available sources in e.g. GNews, GBooks, GScholar, and the Wikipedia Library.

• Weak keep (but I'm leaning more into a delete. I mean...as a Filipino living in the Philippines, I'm not 100% sure about how notable she is here. Her first husband for sure is a much more well known activist (and was even the subject of a musical). There are other activists who have a much higher public profile than her. The way this article was written looks a bit more PR-ish to me than encyclopedic. But, yeah, sure, if there are sources then we can keep it, just that it's gonna be a weak one for me. -- Tito Pao (talk) 05:52, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
