Inadequately sourced biography of a person notable primarily as a city councillor. While Glasgow is a large and prominent enough city that its councillors would be deemed to pass WP:NPOL if they were sourced properly, this rests almost entirely on primary sources (birth and marriage registers, and the council's own archived records of its own internal business), with just one piece of actual reliable source coverage shown at all. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can actually show a greater volume of media coverage than this, but city councillors do not get an automatic NPOL pass just because they exist -- a city councillor's includability is entirely conditional on her sourceability, and the sources shown here aren't adequate.

 * Delete changing my iVote. I was giving her a pass because she's a girl. But she's not a "first" either as a woman or as a Socialist for the Glasgow city council.  coverage in a Proquest news archive search is just her name in the long list of candidates standing for... and a list of the poll result.  Feel free to ping me if someone finds something substantive.E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:14, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
