The subject of this article to meet the standards of WP:N due to lack of multiple, non-trivial references in reliable, third-party sources. There's no Wikipedia policy on the oldest anything being automatically notable by the encyclopedia's standards (also based on long-term consensus, including most recently the redirecting of this World's oldest person). Thus we default to the general notability guidelines and any material of encyclopedic merit can be included on the many longevity-related lists on Wikipedia.

Delete As per WP:Notability (people): People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. Isambard Kingdom (talk) 20:02, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete There is no policy-based reason to retain this article. It cites no reliable sources. It does not purport notability, as that term-is used on Wikipedia. A determined group of hobbyists are asserting, in a large number of cases, that being a "record-holder" for evading the grim reaper long enough to outlive one's age-peers is inherently notable. There's a technical term to describe this assertion: wrong. David in DC (talk) 15:21, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
