- Delete we've had US Ambassadors randomly kept before on marginal sourcing, but there's not enough there to keep. SportingFlyer T· C 12:26, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Wikipedia does not extend any "inherent" notability freebie to all ambassadors just because they exist — an ambassador's includability depends entirely on whether she can be shown to clear WP:GNG on the sourcing or not. But a "staff" profile on the self-published website of her own employer is never a notability-making source for anybody in and of itself, and the only other source shown here is a 116-word blurb in a directory of diplomats, which is not a notability-boosting source either. We require journalism about her and her work, not just technical verification that she exists, to make her notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Bearcat ( talk) 17:13, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
