I'm not sure there's sufficient notability from being a pretender to a claim of longevity. Longevity claims which is where it could go is a complete amalgamation of all sorts of claims like this. Ricky81682 (talk) 06:07, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Longevity claims. Being validated by Guinness or another agency as the oldest woman ever would make her notable but that's not the case here. There is some independent news coverage but it repeats her own claim that she's the oldest woman ever. There's also not much to this article besides her claim of extreme age. Since there already exists a list of unverified claimants in Longevity claims, it makes sense to merge this article into that one. Ca2james (talk) 18:36, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The only real 'coverage' going on is repeated claims on her extreme longevity. I doubt some reliable secondary sources will get even coverage on this. --201.53.53.216 (talk) 06:35, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support deletion? or support keeping the article? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:49, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support deletion. Changed to avoid confusing people. --201.53.53.216 (talk) 15:56, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Longevity claims.Clearly not the claimed age per supporting evidence. Worth mentioning in Longevity claims with other similar claims that are unsustained. - Galloglass 19:07, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Longevity claims. Preferable to deletion because she did get news coverage, so it's useful to have claim be documented as implausible.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:13, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
