Shige Hirooka

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Subject fails WP:N, which requires multiple, non-trivial mentions in reliable sources. Currently the only source is her name on a list of the world's oldest people, and a Google search turned up nothing other than more lists. There may be material available in Japanese, but notability is not based on theoretical sources. I will glady withdraw the nomination if sufficient sources are found, in any language. All of the information here could be (and is) presented on one of the many supercentenarian lists on Wikipedia. Canadian  Paul  02:30, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. Her only remarkable trait as far as I can determine is her age; she is already listed at List of Japanese supercentenarians and List of living supercentenarians. Dcoetzee 15:18, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:BLP1E.    Snotty Wong   babble 19:47, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:BLP1E is a good rule... would also support redirecting to List of Japanese supercentarians... not enough here for an article unless we resort to original research which is a whole other problem for biographies... Arskwad (talk) 14:58, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
