I couldn't establish that she meets WP:BIO or WP:GNG. I've added a link to Wikisource. I hope I'm proved wrong. Boleyn (talk) 08:19, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. Not notable, even given that she was living in earlier times. Who's Who is not a good source. If she had some newspaper clippings, yes, but unfortunately she did not make a splash. Original author of this article stated: "I am a public history student at Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis (IUPUI). For Women's History Month, I am adding information on historic Indiana women to already existing pages or creating stubs. The research was completed by a former public history student. Only one student intern is currently working on the project." Sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 14:52, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I have reworked the article and found numerous secondary sources. There does not appear to be a separate article on Indiana suffrage, but she was involved as an officer of the Indiana Auxiliary of the National Suffrage Association almost from her arrival in Indianapolis. Her involvement continued for almost a decade as far as I can tell. Indiana granted women the vote in 1917 and she was still treasurer in 1914. An archive of her family papers indicates correspondence with Carrie Chapman Catt. SusunW (talk) 05:06, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Obviously more than notable enough for Wikipedia. Just look more carefully into the sources.--Ipigott (talk) 21:04, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: Notable suffragist with major influence on public policy of the time. These articles are slow to develop and ricky to source.  More work is needed, but notability is clear from what's there...that said, need to add more in order to connect the dots for the non-historian.  For that era, a Who's Who can be a perfectly reliable source; newspapers often did not cover the work of women, even when they were highly public in their times. This is one of the challenges of dong women's history - finding the forgotten people who did some amazing things.    Montanabw (talk)  04:45, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
