The result was   redirect to Universal Life Church. None of the keep voters advance a policy-based argument for keeping. Proving notability requires providing sources which pass WP:GNG, and in this case that has not happened. -Scottywong | confer _ 23:24, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

I cannot find substantial coverage per WP:GNG to warrant inclusion. West Eddy (talk) 15:37, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment – Not much coverage of her outside the ULC. Regards, RJH (talk) 18:10, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - President of an organization of 18 million members. StAnselm (talk) 20:56, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * From the source: "The ULC ... claims more than 18 million participating members world wide. These figures are obviously greatly exaggerated." Regards, RJH (talk) 21:40, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * That service includes putting ordination certificates, regardless of faith or education, into the hands of anyone who wants one. And many people do. ULC sends out between 8,500 and 10,000 such certificates each month, close to 18 million worldwide since 1962. Not really members, just that many customers buying their 3 dollar marriage licenses, or paying a hundred dollars for a PhD in Religion.  D r e a m Focus  07:23, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - President of the ULC, and while may not be notable outside that, the President of this group is notable and notability is not temporary. Me-123567-Me (talk) 22:34, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Universal Life Church. The article itself has one dead link to a primary source. What I found searching Google News, Books, and generally were primary sources, this article, its mirrors, and trivial mentions. Her presidency of this California-based organization lasted from 1999-2006, a fairly media-saturated time and place. If the ULC is so exceedingly notable that one could fairly assume its former president notable, then it should be easy to find substantial, independent, reliable sources. Instead, not a single one has even been offered for debate. Fails WP:GNG. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 02:18, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - It is a footnote to the article on the organisation and the article on her husband (which is an onfashionable way to regard women) but WP is not short of paper, and as older records are brought into the universe of search, more information is likely to appear.
