Talk:Jean M. Doerge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
She is notable. Her children and parents are not notable, though they are usually mentioned. The details of their life are not. The details of her education are only of minor interest, along with the details of her schoolteaching. The details of whom she defeated in elections are not--if they are notable, they will have their own articles. The details of her illness are not, and are dubious also under BLP.
As for style, when a link to a WP article for a person is given, the b and d years are not usually required, for they will be in the linked article. It just adds to the clutter for the linked years. When a person is in a category, it automatically places the person in supercategories. Encyclopedic wording requires conciseness- the expansion of the exposition into as many sentences as possible is typical of obituary writing and political advertising, and inappropriate here.
