Single source, fails to meet WP:PROF. Tal Brenev ( talk) 23:28, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
- Strong keep. Subject easily meets WP:GNG through a series of accomplishments that were rare for women in her day. She taught at MIT and was the first woman sent out by an oil company to do surveying. She also has a fellowship named for her at Wellesley College. More sources have been added to the article, including her New York Times obituary. I think a quick search would have revealed her notability and suggest that the nominator review WP:BEFORE.

- Keep. Notability is clear as above. Xxanthippe ( talk) 04:49, 27 January 2014 (UTC).
- Keep. WP:PROF isn't a very good fit for academics of that time, but nevertheless she does pass #3 with the AAAS and AGS fellows. The objection of having a single source is no longer valid. And the NYT obit seals the deal. — David Eppstein ( talk) 05:10, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
- Keep Obviously notable. Dloh cierekim 07:36, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

- Keep — Maile ( talk) 23:33, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
- Keep Lack of sources isn't a good AfD argument ( WP:MUST), this does pass WP:PROF and WP:GNG. LM2000 ( talk) 03:58, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
