> Wikipedia is already full of boring and random stubs, I don't see the obsession editors have with making sure that a person is "important enough" to have an article

I hate one off article based on say just one news article or personal knowledge or something. It makes it impossible for someone to add anything or edit the article. It's very clear that the the person in the article wants to just add entries not maintain it for multiple years. Also as far as I can find, she didn't object to any deletion[0].

Basically I am sure she has good intentions, but optimising on number of pages created is not a good metric as all.

She did object on at least one of those:
