Just being very old is not really grounds for notability. See also Articles for deletion/Karin Elly Hansen. Reywas92 Talk 17:04, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Neutral: I see where the nom's rationale is coming from, but if this one goes, I don't see why the third oldest person in the United States is here, or for that matter, why some of these people have articles. I think the notability here depends on coverage in WP:RS. (This is a copy-paste of my other rationale at Karin Elly Hansen, a similar case.)

 * In my opinion most of these should go. This article has weak coverage and notability warranting an article is not shown. Reywas92 Talk 19:40, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep : The general Wikipedia standard for age, in itself, being notable seems to be the achievement of "supercentenarian", or 110 years, as very few people reach this age; the best estimate being about 400 such persons, or about one out of every 16,000,000 people. Also, Ms. Marinič is/was allegedly the oldest person ever from Slovenia, which would contribute to notability.

 * Keep: Comparing articles is pointless. One is about a centenarian that is poorly sourced. This is about a verified supercentenarian, which is backed by plenty of reliable sources. If you check Google, you will find hundreds of articles about her numerous birthdays. SiameseTurtle (talk) 08:04, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep, as per previous two commenters. — Yerpo Eh? 11:47, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of verified supercentenarians who died in 2010 per WP:ONEVENT and WP:NOTMEMORIAL. Her only claim of notability is that she died at the age of 111. Armbrust  Talk  Contribs  13:11, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Please keep the page! Articles such as these are important for people who may be doing research in the future!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.60.213.26 (talk) 01:18, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Supercentenarian & Oldest Person from Country are good enough for me, although this is one of those instances where any decision is highly subjective Vartanza (talk) 03:11, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Shes the only vberified person ever from Slovenia, and therefore their oldest person ever and is therefore notable. Longevitydude (talk) 14:10, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. The article about this supercentenarian (=being notable) is backed up by plenty of reliable sources. --Eleassar my talk 19:30, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment for what its worth, this afd probably assumes bad faith considering it wasn't nominated until another editor mentioned this article in a different afd. Longevitydude (talk) 19:48, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * How the heck is that bad faith??? Am I not allowed to nominate an article that I feel is not notable? It's not like I could nominate something before I knew of its existence. The other article was deleted, but apparently some disagree on this one, so OK. Reywas92 Talk 00:13, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
