Another longevity claimant with almost no information. The majority of this article is irrelevant filler material about other old people and the standard "secret to longevity". Once stripped of that, we're left with a couple of dates and a nationality; a list on the Longevity claims article can handle that. WP:NOPAGE here.

Delete This article fails WP:BIO1E, and WP:NOPAGE. The article says very little about this obvious fraudster. She scammed some media coverage, but the article still says more about other people then it does her. Maybe deserves a mention at Longevity myths (her age claim is so absurd she doesn't even qualify for longevity claims), but nothing more. Newshunter12 (talk) 02:20, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - One of those who were known only for claiming themselves to be oldest. This is similar to other few recently nominated articles. These articles lack significant coverage especially when we take their extraordinary claims into account. We are not supposed to be a platform for righting great wrongs.
