Comment: I just started looking for sources now. Her obituary (from Associated Press, published in ''The Times'', Shreveport and other papers), has a lot more info about her, including her father's name and occupation and where she was born, her education, what she was responsible for as registrar of state lands (management of state property, management of state parks, collection of oil and gas revenues - and she worked to improve the Louisiana state park system, including the purchase and preservation of a Civil War battle site and lobbying the governor for guidelines on salvaging 400 year old Spanish ships that sank off the coast of Louisiana (https://www.newspapers.com/image/220372770/?terms=%22Ellen%2BBryan%2BMoore%22. An article in the same paper two years later called 'Women making strides in political arena' has a list of 8 women who had held statewide elected office in Louisiana, including Moore https://www.newspapers.com/image/219668367/?terms=%22Ellen%2BBryan%2BMoore%22. It certainly seems that she meets , which does not exclude bureaucratic office.

Comment: All of the keep !voters have discussed things based on -based guidelines, but the sourcing of the article is absolutely terrible. We have her tombstone, an archived biography of her from the state of Louisiana, an oral history/interview, two alleged newspaper articles from a town of 10,000 people, and a website showing she got an award which just lists her name without any biographical information there at all. The only two sources here which potentially pass  are sourced as routine election coverage. This article badly fails , and we should not be looking to keep it on a technicality

Comment: Register of State Lands" is a bureaucratic role, not an -passing legislative office, so the notability test she would have to pass would require much more evidence of |reliable source coverage than this. Three of the five footnotes are |primary sources, not reliable or notability-making media coverage, and the two which are media (but are incompletely cited for the purposes of being able to locate them for proper verification, as they both lack the ''titles'' of the articles) appear, based on what they're actually being used to footnote, to just be routine verification of raw election results rather than coverage ''about Moore''. This is not enough

Comment: fails  and arguably  as well, the sourcing of this article is primary, hyper-local, or both, and is nowhere near enough to push her over the notability line
