Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chiyo Miyako
Up till now, all "keep" !votes are non-policy based, but are different versions of , with unfounded claims that just being very old makes somebody inherently notable. However, ''even if we would accept that this person is notable'', look at the article. There is absolutely ''nothing'' of encyclopedic interest in there apart from birth/death dates and places, which very easily can be accomodated in the List of the verified oldest people. Look at the references. I mean, really, ''look'' at them. The one in the ''Mirror'', for example. All we learn from that "article" is that her family called her a "chatty godess" and that she liked sushi and eel. Or the ''Japan Times'', which devotes ''two'' (2) whole sentences to Miyako, part of those talking about her predecessor and then talking about the current oldest persons. No biographical info whatsoever apart from the already mentioned birth/death dates and places. So, really? Is that really the kind of material that we'd like to build a biography on? The fact is that we have ''nothing'' to write ''about'' Miyako and given that more coverage is unlikely to follow, we'll never get beyond her liking for eel
