Another non-notable old lady. Being the oldest person in an arbitrarily defined geographical area is not inherently notable, and the rest of this is filler routine coverage. WP:NOPAGE. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 16:09, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO1E because there is only WP:ROUTINE coverage of her that fails to demonstrate notability and there is no notability guideline that "the oldest x" is notable. The content of the article is pretty much just trivia about her family and other peoples age records. She lived. She avoided the Reaper longer then most. She died. Pure WP:NOPAGE. Her age, life dates, and nationality are already recorded on the List of Belgian supercentenarians, where they are easier to view, so this permanent WP:PERMASTUB is not needed.

Redirect to List of Belgian supercentenarians – The only coverage this person received was because of her reaching an advanced age. Her age is notable, not her life or deeds. Hence her placement among the list of oldest Belgians ever is sufficient for recording notable facts in this encyclopedia. — JFG ^talk 10:20, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete/Redirect to appropriate list. This is easily one of the most padded supercentenarian articles and an excellent reason for why WP:NOPAGE and WP:PERMASTUB apply to these articles. The article tells us more about List of Belgian supercentenarians than it does about her. There's an unrelated sentence about the oldest person from Belgium and who here predecessor/successors were in a strained attempt to stretch this article out. There is only three bits of information about her that isn't in the Belgian list: She got married, she had a daughter and she swam until she was 109. Nothing of interest here to justify a standalone article. CommanderLinx (talk) 00:23, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
