Keep. Seems to be plenty coverage, some examples: Some less significant coverage, but worth noting:
 * 1) https://newjerseyglobe.com/local/mildred-crump-resigns-newark-council-seat/
 * 2) https://www.nj.com/essex/2022/02/newarks-1st-black-councilwoman-celebrated-as-a-trailblazer-who-led-from-a-place-in-her-heart.html
 * 3) https://patch.com/new-jersey/newarknj/trailblazing-newark-councilwoman-mildred-crump-resigns-report (previous discussion reached no apparent consensus on the reliability of Patch.com
 * 1) She is quoted here, so I wouldn't use the quote, but the fact that they went to her for this statement suggests notability to me: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/11/nyregion/newark-riots-50-years.html
 * 2) Brief mention here https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/jun/23/procedural-justice-transform-us-criminal-courts
 * 3) https://www.insidernj.com/crump-2022-refocusing-place-strength/
 * 4) 9 mentions in Gillespie, A. (2013). The New Black Politician: Cory Booker, Newark, and Post-Racial America. United States: NYU Press. CT55555 (talk) 20:17, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Leaning keep per the above. I don't think the encyclopedia fails as a resource if this is deleted, but I also don't think it would be absurd if kept. BD2412  T 20:20, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Satisfies GNG. Djflem (talk) 20:53, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * looks like she was the subject of an article in ‘’The Crisis’’, a national publication of the NAACP. I can’t get to it on my phone.Jacona (talk) 11:11, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * This is just a mention of her, including title; she is quoted as believing the death penalty in New Jersey should be retained. Jacona (talk) 12:58, 13 June 2022 (UTC)


 * also, this book. Kukla, B. J. (2005). Defying the Odds: Triumphant Black Women of Newark. Jacona (talk) 11:18, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep plentiful evidence by way of sourcing and citations supporting a keep on this one. Gnomatique (talk) 23:23, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep By my count, this 1994 New York Times article is 55 sentences. It's very in-depth, discusses her background and the start of her political career. This 2021 New Jersey Globe article is longer, is extremely in-depth and is the bookend to the Times article as it's about the end of her 27-year political career. In the middle of this 27 year span there's a bunch of other articles that can be found on google search (I left the middle initial out). She was an impressive individual, easily meets WP:GNG. Jacona (talk) 00:05, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * That is a good reference. Perhaps you can put it in the article and any others you find.   scope_creep Talk  05:05, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd love to, but I'm spending way too much of my WP time doing BEFORE for other people, which leaves very little time for editing. Maybe you could find some time to fix it. :) Jacona (talk) 17:21, 14 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep. Satisfies GNG, based on the references found in this discussion. --Enos733 (talk) 20:18, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
