Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dorothy Walker Bush
I'm pleased to see this AfD going well beyond the |generic notability test, but being the influential mother of GHWB amounts to some pretty significant spillover notability. The rationale for deletion seems to be that notability from incidental/trivial relationships doesn't really count as notability, but I don't agree. Emma Watson's famous role as Hermione Granger, for example, could have plausibly gone to one of a hundred otherwise non-notable actors, but because Watson happened to get it she (rightfully) has an article. I don't think there's really a distinction between "notability through doing things" and notability inherent to a person, incidental or not. People will seek information (and have information to contribute) on the subject either way, and that's what notability standards are really for
