Her only claim to notability is having been an infant on board the Titanic and one of only two living survivors. Andrew Levine 09:34, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - she is only one of the two survivors, so doesn't that make her notable enough? Jayden54 09:56, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a strange one. While she is still alive she is notable.  When she dies she briefly be very notable but afterwards she will not be notable.  I'd keep her in.  I can imagine people being intersted in the lives of those survivors still alive.
 * Keep - it's a sad fact of life, but as the number of survivors from anything is reduced, the remaining ones become more notable. Quack 688 11:44, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. James086Talk 12:13, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above &#39;&#39;&#91;&#91;User:Kitia&#124;Kitia]] 17:40, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Jayden54. Edison 18:36, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Jayden54 and James086. She's a notable person. Morhange 20:43, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. This case has been featured on many other sites, not just Wikipedia.→ R Young  {yak ł talk } 06:47, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per above. Last few survivors are notable, like the last few WWI veterans. --Berks105 17:23, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Keep while alive; remove soon after death. --LittleSocrates 23:23, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. For heavens' sake, she's notable now, and she will be notable even after her death for being among the last survivors to die. The last American Civil War veterans to die remain notable even today.  The Titanic is a very popular historical topic among amateurs, because of the film among other things, and its longest-lived survivors are (and will continue to be) notable for ages to come. Xoloz 21:01, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - as above. Dovea 21:29, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Xoloz KaragouniS 21:59, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep The last survivors of certain events are often a topic of interest. --BHC 23:22, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Most surely this is to be kept. Titanic is one of the most famous incidents in history and survivors of tragedies always interest people. Arnig 08:56, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
