This person does not appear to meet the
general notability guidelines as I can find no significant coverage about her. The article does not make a clear claim for notability. She is asserted to be a politician, but there is no indication that she has held political office. The only hint in the article is that "[s]he was affiliated with
Marion Barry", but the article fails to provide any sort of details.

If the best you can do for a notability claim is that she was appointed to a municipal economic development commission, and the best you can do for sourcing is that commission's own website (a
primary source which cannot demonstrate notability, and fails to even verify most of the content in this article), then what you have is a person who does not qualify for a Wikipedia article under any of our inclusion guidelines. And for the record, an earlier version was deleted which provided reams and reams more detail about her personal life, without actually citing any
better sources or providing any more substantive detail about her political career, than this version does. So I'm torn about whether this should qualify for
WP:CSD#G4 or not — it's not a repost of the same article, but it does make the same weak notability claim and definitely doesn't source it any better. And even in this significantly less detailed version, there's still enough unsourced private personal information (the names of her parents?! an ex-husband's drug habit?!) that I can't help but suspect a
WP:COI violation. Delete with fire. Plus upon reviewing the history I note that in addition to the prior AFD, it's also been speedied three times A7 — so I'd recommend
salting the earth afterward too.
