Contested deletion edit

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --Daffodil Bale (talk) 03:18, 26 November 2020 (UTC) This article was written for a class in which we highlighted Notable Alaskans, the issue I ran into was that she doesn't have enough secondary sources in order to add or clarify her contributions of her Public Service Career. Which is where the ambiguity comes in. She retired in 1986 and all of the foundational information on her is in an Archive within the University. I would greatly appreciate the ability to allow this article to hangout in a start or stub class at the very least so if another class comes behind me they can add to it in the hopes by then someone has written more information on her to use as a secondary source. Thank you for your time. Daffodil Bale (talk) 03:18, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello Daffodil Bale -- I've declined the deletion request because I think the article might be salvageable. A lot of the language isn't encyclopedic, however, and needs editing down to what can be supported by sources. These need not be online. The various women's projects might be able to help out -- I'll drop Women in Red a note. Espresso Addict (talk) 03:23, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thank you Espresso Addict. I appreciate the opportunity for this to be salvaged. Daffodil Bale (talk) 03:29, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
