Pauline Musters[edit]

She's only a curiosity from Guinness Book. She does not receive enough coverage from independent reliable secondary sources. Not notable per WP:BIO. Tosqueira (talk) 07:15, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is some info at books.google.com. It might not be enought for a full article. On the other hand, she died over a hundred years ago so perhaps someone wrote more details about her life. Suntag (talk) 08:08, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Pauline Musters, aka "Princess Pauline", would not have been mentioned in the Guinness book at all had it not been for coverage in reliable sources that confirmed her as the smallest adult in history. I'm sure I'm not the only person who recognizes her name. Like Robert Wadlow, or Lucia Zarate, she was celebrated in an era where people were curious about other persons who were extremely tall, light, or in this case, 1'11" tall at the age of 18.

Keep Guinness Book is a independent reliable secondary source. Edward321 (talk) 00:26, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
