Biography of a non-notable individual and a contested draftification. Unless being President General of the Daughters of the American Revolution is considered an inherently notable post (and I don't know of any consensus that would indicate such), she fails WP:GNG and WP:NBIO. A quick review of sources:

• [1], unreliable per WP:ANCESTRY.COM
• Non-independent sources from organizations Tinker Watkins was affiliated with: [2], [3].
• WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS in non-independent sources: [4], [5], [6].
• More trivial mentions: [7] and a single passing mention in a newspaper photo caption

I searched for more in the standard BEFORE search, but the page creator seems to have put every possible source into this article, making it unlikely that there is more out there since none of these sources qualifies for notability. Dclemens1971 (talk) 04:13, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. President General position in Daughters of American Revolution does not appear to be an inherently notable position, many of the others don't have Wikipedia pages. Can't find any non-trivial mentions of subject besides what is already included in citations. InsomniaOpossum (talk) 04:50, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as per the excellent nomination discussion. The leaders of insular communities and organizations are not per se notable; they must meet SIGCOV, which is lacking in this case. Bearian (talk) 05:45, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
