Angela Chao

Subject does not appear to have substantial coverage in multiple secondary, independent and reliable sources, therefore it does not meet the Wikipedia notability guideline for biographies standard and qualifies for deletion for failing notability.

 * Delete Notability is not inherited so she does not gain notability through her sister, nor her father, nor her family's wonderful charitable donations. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  06:09, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree with both arguments above. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 06:55, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - I have added extra sources, added a section on her marriage and wikified the article. She is deputy Chairman of a very large international corporation, boardmember of multiple foundations with a Wikipedia article, sufficient coverage in national and international media. -- Taketa (talk) 07:25, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep - Angela Chao is on the board of directors of some of the most powerful groups on the planet. As the one of the few Asian American women in the U.S to hold these kind of positions of power, I am concerned why someone would want the page deleted. Further, her support and enthusiasm for the arts in NYC, which has not yet been added, is expansive. To summarize, Chao's a very influential member of the international business community, one of Harvard's most generous alums, influential in NYC arts, and a role model to Asian American girls. That's my best pitch. Do as you must. -Curtster3, who created the page

 * Weak delete - The first reference is the subject's own home page. The second covers a family donation but only tangentially mentions the subject. The third merely lists the subject among New York City Economic Development Corporation board members. The fourth is an obituary as the fourth wife of Bruce Wasserstein.  The fifth is an article regarding the subject as his bride.  This is the only relatively substantive material and it covers her due to her marriage to another person.  The subject is connected to important people and entities but notability is not inherited.  The article does not show that WP:BIO criteria are met, although perhaps additional research would reveal more.--Rpclod (talk) 18:20, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak delete None of the references here attest to notability; most barely mention her, none is about her. Some are about embarrassing or sad personal moments. I did find one fairly solid article from a foundation whose board she is on . That is a family foundation, however, so maybe it isn't a neutral resource? If someone cares to WP:Userfy this until more resources can be found, that would make sense to me. LaMona (talk) 23:01, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
 * You can also do a search on 赵安吉 her Chinese name for more info. 75.18.160.186 (talk) 06:01, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete And not a weak delete, a very definite one. Being on the board of directors of any organization, no matter how important or famous, is not enough for notability by itself. Marrying a billionaire is not by itself notable. There is no other relevant content. Her father is notable.  DGG ( talk ) 00:10, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Bruce Wasserstein and possibly expand by a sentence or two the existing note about here there. I don't see sources providing evidence of notability under WP:BIO, although it is quite possible that they exist and have not been demonstrated yet. --j⚛e deckertalk 18:44, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
