Louise Outing[edit]

94 year old woman in the news in 2004 for an unsuccessful lawsuit to receive a lottery jackpot as a lump sum (Massachusetts Lottery only pays annuities.) Fails WP:BLP1E a google search reveals that this is the only event she has been noted for - Wikipedia is not a newspaper, the mention in Massachusetts Lottery is more than sufficient.

Delete Does not meet notability requirements RP459 (talk) 04:11, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Massachusetts Lottery, which already covers the subject adequately. Subject is utterly low-profile/non-notable except for this incident, therefore BLP1E precludes a bio article on her. Baileypalblue (talk) 07:58, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Possibly the oldest person to win a multi-million dollar US lottery prize. More notable in that she could not collect (directly from the lottery) in cash. If she is still alive, she will celebrate her 100th birthday in March 2010. Loveyourcar (talk) 14:26, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment Age is utterly immaterial to notability in this case. --Ged UK 14:51, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the lottery article. She is notable only for one event, so fails WP:BLP1E. --Ged UK 14:51, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
