Mid-level government official, academic and daughter of a senator, none of which seem to satisfy WP:BIO or WP:ACADEMIC. Clarityfiend (talk) 14:28, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

National Academy of Public Administration (United States) you mean - this has 850 fellows, & I'm dubious all are notable. Johnbod (talk) 18:23, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I did mean National Academy of Public Administration (United States). I cannot find information about how many fellows they have versus members. I added more details. For example, she was the 2013 commencement speaker at the Fels Institute of Government at the University of Pennsylvania (recent speakers include Helen Gym, Pete Buttigieg, and Larry O. Spencer). She also played a central role in the Obama administration's 2010 Government Performance and Results Act (add link to that page and an external link to photos of the bill signing.

I have expanded the article a bit more to include her mentions in the Washington Post and the New York Times. She has spoken to Congress,[1][2] been interviewed in the Federal News Network,[3] and has given multiple keynote and invited speeches.[4][5][6] I also added a photo of her, Jeffrey Zients, and Barack Obama from the White House during the signing of the Government Performance and Results Act.

  • Weak Delete as essentially promotional, as shown by the extensive blurbs used as references togethe rwith borderline notability at best. But she might be notable, if there's agreement that being a member the Academy is sufficient--and then an article would be possible. We need a discussion about the National Academy of Public Administration (United States)] . I cannot tell from thePR-based article on it the extent to which it really does represent a top level honor inits field for a government administrator. The number of people is not unreasonably high, and thatwe don't have articles on many of them might be because of the difficulty in finding good criteria in this field. This might be very helpful if there's consensus to use it. DGG ( talk ) 20:57, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

??She's 70 in March 22. Time to make your mind up! Johnbod (talk) 03:21, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Well, Grandma Moses hit her stride at 78. Clarityfiend (talk) 14:44, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
contributions to edited volumes don;'t usually count the same as peer reviewed journal articles. What would make this very much easier would be if she had been awarded any actual honorary degrees. Often commencement speakers are, but it's usually mentioned quite prominently in all the PR. and can be easily verified.
the basic problem we have is in companies or governments, it's very hard to distinguish externally who really does the notable work. PR people can make whatever claims they care to , and they might even isn some instance be correct, but it's almost impossible to verify unless someone does a third party study of the agency or company. As an example, we among us know who does the noteworthy work here, but it would be very difficult to verify this to an outsider. Similarly,, those in the WMF know who is really responsible for progress, but it would be very hard to demonstrate, and an outsider would probably treat any statement with considerable doubt about objectivity. On the other hand it's easy to show who have been the CEOs.
