Jane Ross (businesswoman)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Fine contributions to be sure, but almost entirely local in nature. Article is basically a reworking of the article used as the sole reference. No other sources provided to show that WP:BIO is met. DarkAudit (talk) 20:12, 29 January 2008 (UTC) 
 * Comment Borderline notability, but she seems to have had statewide name recognition. It might be better to rework this into an article on the Ross Foundation, which seems likely to pass WP:ORG. --Dhartung | Talk 22:58, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment The article has been reworked into a much better condition, but notability is still almost entirely local. DarkAudit (talk) 06:44, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete local philanthropist on a small scale. No significant public office. DGG (talk) 15:17, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't Delete I'll admit I submitted the article, having came across her while researching Clark County, Arkansas. However, notable is notable. There are many notable persons who, outside of their little part of the world, are little if at all known. However, where they are known, they made an impact. If the purpose of wikipedia is to inform the readers, and if even one of those readers anywhere in the world just for whatever reason happens to research "Jane Ross", then the article has served the purpose for which wikipedia stands. That is my opinion. Charliecow7 —Preceding unsigned comment added by (talk) Charliecow7 (talk • contribs) 12:49, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
