The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus to delete, after much-extended time for discussion. Notably, substantial additional material has been added to the article since the nomination, including references to independent sources, which tends to support the argument that the subject meets WP:ANYBIO. Several participants supporting retention of the article have still expressed WP:TOOSOON concerns. However, once the President of the United States has submitted a nomination for a federal post conferring presumed notability, only two outcomes can result: the subject is confirmed to the post, or the subject is not confirmed to the post; the withdrawal, rejection, or other circumstance leading to the non-confirmation of such a nominee is itself generally a newsworthy and noteworthy event, making an additional point of notability inevitable even if it is not via confirmation to the office.

WP:BLP of a diplomat, not reliably sourced as passing our notability criteria for diplomats. Ambassadors are not handed an automatic notability freebie just because you can single-source their existence as ambassadors to primary source staff profiles self-published by their own employers -- the notability test for diplomats is passing WP:GNG on reliable source media coverage about their work in the role. But this is written as "she is an ambassador who exists, the end", and is sourced to a single press release from the White House rather than any evidence of media coverage to establish her significance.

  • Keep. Meets WP:ANYBIO. Pierangelo is the recipient of the Meritorious Civilian Service Award and has been referenced in numerous reliable sources for her contributions to diplomacy prior to her nomination as U.S. Ambassador to Madagascar. It is unclear to me why this page is being singled out for deletion. KidAd • SPEAK 18:56, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep While I don't think WP should be a mirror of the US State department, the people representing the relationship between two governments are of importance to anyone interested in international relations. The only doubt I can think of is a WP:TOOSOON, but she'll eventually be instated and there can only be more RSs. I'd only consider a deletion if she never took the post or left after a short period for non-controversial reasons. Estheim (talk) 04:38, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify per WP:TOOSOON. U.S. ambassadors generally get enough coverage to pass GNG once in office.4meter4 (talk) 04:31, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
