Grace Vera Davis

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

The lead states "One of her most notable achievements was her obtaining a Master’s degree from Midwestern University in 1954." which is great for her but not quite Wikipedia level notable. -- NotC hariza rd 🗨 03:47, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. A search turned up no reliable sources to show notability. I agree with Mccapra that this reads like a family history. It does not belong on Wikipedia. Sorely fails WP:GNG and does not meet WP:BASIC. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 07:49, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete, a beautiful little bit of family research, and no doubt a good and worthy person, but WP isn't the place to publish family history. If only our articles on genuinely notable people were so nicely written and illustrated. Elemimele (talk) 12:41, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete "While she made no significant contributions to the betterment of mankind, her legacy of education and material objects is still important to her surviving family." So she herself admits it's not notable. Oaktree b (talk) 15:22, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. No indication of encyclopedic notability per WP:GNG. Not a subject for an article. -- Kinu t/c 19:42, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. This would be great information for a family genealogical newsletter, but has no encyclopedic worth. The article says it best: "Grace Vera Davis was an average woman. While she made no significant contributions to the betterment of mankind, her legacy of education and material objects is still important to her surviving family." --Kbabej (talk) 23:18, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Whilst well-researched, I agree with the above this isn't encyclopedic material. -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:46, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete This article is just a genealogical entry, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. The article even admits that the subject lacks notability, strange but true. Anyway, a Google search I conducted only produced a few hits, which were all passing mentions of her. --LPS and MLP Fan (Littlest Pet Shop and My Little Pony Fan) 21:36, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
