Non-notable woman. She did a nice work but she is only mentioned in media because of her death in an aircraft incident. Damiens.rf 15:54, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tentative keep - she may pass WP:PROF. Rescue? Bearian (talk) 17:30, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - she was the expert on "literary German-speaking exiles in Brazil during the Nazis". 71.246.238.214 (talk) 18:09, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I found 45 hits on Google scholar. Can anyone translate German or Portugese? Bearian (talk) 20:29, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I also found many Google book hits. Can anyone sort throigh these? Bearian (talk) 20:33, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good work, Bearian. As far as I can tell, her one book is essentially her Ph.D. dissertation, written in German and translated into Portuguese several years later. The other items look like journal articles she wrote or her name on forum deutsch, the journal she edited. 71.246.238.214 (talk) 21:48, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bearian, I just went over to read WP:PROF, but it clearly falls under TL;DR (too long, didn't read). 71.246.238.214 (talk) 02:09, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Found a newspaper article about the person from 1988. [1] Most coverage is concerning them being on the missing Air France Flight 447. The associated press has a profile of them, with a paragraph of information. Not sure why though. She was apparently a notable expert though, based on what I see, and what others have said.

Comment: it would appear to be more accurate to state that you have found a newspaper article that mentions the person in a single sentence (as a PhD candidate, not an established expert). I can see no indication that the article makes any further mention of her (but as it is a bitmap of a Portuguese article, I cannot be certain). Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 16:48, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - with the sources added in, I beleive there is enough for an article. Hopefully, more can be found in other lang sources to expand the article more later. Outback the koala (talk) 17:00, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
