Another non-notable supercentenarian. The writing is blatantly promotional and entirely consists of either longevity cruft or other irrelevant filler material, and other than the Guinness notes is routine coverage. Once stripped of all that we're left with a picture and a couple statistics; clearly WP:NOPAGE, and barely even really enough for a minibio.

 * Delete This article fails WP:GNG, WP:BIO1E, and WP:NOPAGE. There is no policy that the "oldest x" is notable and this article is packed with longevity fancruft like her earliest memory was a car ride, a list of moves, what presidents she has voted for, and her favorite foods. Her name, life dates, and nationality are best handled on the four lists they already reside on. This WP:PERMASTUB is not needed. Newshunter12 (talk) 00:59, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Although there is a list of 100 oldest American people ever, I don't see the significance of this achievement. Deb (talk) 11:44, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete – Besides the longevity trivia, all we have is wise advice to eat well and believe in God. I do both, I hope I live that long. Not notable in the least. — JFG talk 20:02, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
