260:. While this sounds very promising, the article is actually only 3/4 of a page long, and is actually focused on research into the job satisfaction of women in the US military. Captain Okoreeh-Baah is covered in only three paragraphs of this article and a photograph; one of these paragraphs briefly describes her military career and the other two are quotes about her views on the equality of women in the military. Hence, only a paragraph of the article is actually directly useful for writing a biography on Captain Okoreeh-Baah and it's not at all helpful in establishing notability. 265: 235:
What's claimed to be a story in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. The URL actually points towards a United States Marine Corps website (which won't load for me) and from the title of the story it appears to be about the unit Captain Okoreeh-Baah was a member of, and not her, and so is unlikely to provide

in early 2009. However, most of the comments in that discussion seem to have been variations on 'she's important' as Captain Okoreeh-Baah was the first woman to fly a new type of military aircraft. The sources attesting to this supposed 'notability' are very limited, however, and the views of several

is notable. Being the first African-American woman to fly a specific type of aircraft with the Marines five years after the second event mentioned above is not notable. She should be admired and her commitment to her country is commendable, but Wikinotable, for better or for worse, she is not. Fails

and Captain Okoreeh-Baah should not have an article on her. In regards to the previous AfD nomination, I'd also observe that we've taken a much stronger position on BLPs since early 2009 (particularly in relation to strengthening the weight given towards protecting individuals privacy).

on 'Elizabeth A. Okoreeh-Baah' are Knowledge mirrors, old military PR stories about her becoming the first woman to fly a V-22, and short various mentions of her on various websites. As such, it's clear to me that this article violates
247:, this work was published by the 'Tar Heel Chapter, NC-1, Women Marines Association'. With all respect to the members of this association, they are obviously not a professional publisher of any sort, so this isn't a reliable source. 91: 184: 216: 86: 178: 145: 584:
the sources do not establish notability per the requirements of GNG. That nothing more has been added on her career in the last two years implies this was a single event.

An article on the US military's DVIDS public relations website. This obviously isn't an independent source, and so isn't useful in establishing notability.
