Zofia Szydłowiecka

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Absolutely no information could be found about this person. It is simply not possible that Polish Wikipedia would not have an entry on a Polish saint yet she isn't there. Google search 'Święta Zofia Szydłowiecka' ('Saint Zofia Szydłowiecka') shows just nothing besides en-wiki article. Whereas Zofia Szydłowiecka certainly existed, she was not a saint. The article contains information about her alleged sainthood and a rather strange description of consequences of marriage decision made specifically on 18th of November. The article was written on February the 16th, 2005 by a user that is inactive since 2005. It has hardly been edited since its creation. It has a tag since December 2009 that it lacks references. Besides her alleged sainthood, there are no signs of notability. If not a hoax, the article is most probably a mistake. Maksymilian Sielicki (talk) 09:35, 14 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment. I am not sure about this one. There are hits on Google books for that very person (mostly Polish sources), through what I see are rather brief mentions, mostly discussing genealogy or related topics. She has not been deemed important enough to warrant an entry on pl wiki, through it not a notability criteria in itself. According to she might have been the governess of Polish royalty, which could contribute to her notability. Our article suggests some kind of legend associated with her, if I read the half-gibberish paragraph correctly, but I am not seeing any sources to confirm that... --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  13:16, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete Searched some commercial news databases and found nothing. Seems of dubious importance.
