Fails WP:GNG. I've only found one proper source, which is the obituary that is already ref'd in this article. Scrolling down Google does not bring up anything that's quite better, aside from a few mentions in a magazine with no biographical information, a document with prohibited access, and a website that seems down. –eggofreason^{(talk · contribs)} 16:53, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I think. There is several GBook references available. She was the first women Fellows of the Institute of Actuaries. [1]. I think a deeper search in archives will find more as she seemed to very vocal. scope_creep^Talk 10:46, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: have added a couple of new sources, and she appears to have been a pioneer woman in her profession and to have supported her successors. It's unfortunate that my computer doesn't trust the pages of The Actuary website, so I can't check all the relevant material. PamD 17:10, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I have added more sources and information. I was able to access the obituary through a Google cache, as my computer also didn't trust the website, and the page has unfortunately not been archived. There is significant coverage in the Actuary obituary and an article in The Daily Telegraph in 1970, when she was appointed deputy actuary at the Prudential - the first woman to reach management level in that firm, as well as the first woman on the council of the Institute of Actuaries. There is also coverage, though not as long, in a 1971 article in The Sunday Telegraph; in the Birmingham Daily Post, which noted in 1968 that she was the first woman elected to the council of the Institute; and in the Daily Telegraph, which noted when she was appointed to the Secretary of State's advisory panel. I believe that she meets WP:BASIC, if not also something similar to WP:ACADEMIC for the impact on her profession of her achievements and her writing (as noted in her obituary).

Keep. I think the Telegraph story and the Actuary obituary are enough for WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:37, 16 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
