Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:BASIC. Forbes is one article that could count. But other than that, sources are either not reliable or not independent. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 19:53, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment I removed the Forbes ref. They produce a huge number x of y articles and its not-notable. In 2018, they produced 1471 of them, so they are very poor quality, as a ref    scope_creep Talk  20:00, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. CEO of a significant institution, subject of reliable source coverage from the Philadelphia Inquirer and health industry publications.   Gamaliel  ( talk ) 21:49, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Not only female CEO of a significant institution, but also serves on the boards of several influential and important institutions such as the Philadelphia Fed. Merrilee (talk) 22:04, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. I retired after a 3 decades career in healthcare administration, mostly centered in hospitals. I can tell you I have never heard of a hospital CEO being a nurse; the position is ALWAYS held by a physician. This fact alone leads me to believe that the biography is of an exceptionally notable person. --Rosiestep (talk) 22:22, 27 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep - I can understand the concern here, but the sources and notable contribution get the subject across the line for me. I like to see some more substance in the article (especially for a BLP) but I think the subject meets our inclusion criteria.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 01:17, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY, I have added some independent and reliable sources and more substance to the article that I think help address the concerns of the nom and help support WP:BASIC notability for a standalone article. Beccaynr (talk) 05:23, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep: Now richly and adequately sourced.--Ipigott (talk) 08:10, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep: These trade publications certainly pass for RS. --WomenProj (talk) 13:17, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment - Very well! There is a clear consensus then. This was being moved to and fro from drafts; now that we are clear at AFD, that should also be settled and page should stay at mainspace. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:38, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep and agree with Nomadicghumakkad to keep the article in mainspace. It looks solid.  -- econterms (talk) 17:51, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
