routine news item, BIO:ONEEVENT. The first woman pilot in the Nigerian Air Force (Blessing Liman) might possibly be notable, but going beyond this into various specialities is getting indiscriminate. DGG ( talk ) 00:28, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom, fails WP:SOLDIER and WP:GNG. Mztourist (talk) 05:52, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• keepi have gone through this article and checked information on Nigerian women who are flying in the Nigerian Air Force. while (Blessing Liman) is the first female pilot in Nigerian Air Force, she does not fly a fighter aircraft. I found this from the explanation of the spokesman of Nigerian Air Force Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola [1]. I think that what will be notable in this circumstance, being an air force, are officers that fly fighter aircraft and not officers that fly any aircraft because there are other women who are pilots in Nigeria but flying commercial aircraft. I therefore think that Kafayat Sanni being the first to fly a fighter jet and Tolulope Arotile being the first to fly a fighter military helicopter are more notable than Blessing Liman. Consequently, I propose that these articles should not be deleted. i have also edited the article and included the above mentioned link.--Obihoja (talk) 08:46, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete — Per nom. The subject of the article is not notable & this article per se isn’t necessary. Celestina007 (talk) 17:37, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The first female combat pilot in an air force is certainly notable. I don't think there would be any question of keeping her if she served in the air forces of the UK, USA, Canada, etc. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:35, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment on the Blessing Liman page it states that "On 27 April 2012, she made history by becoming Nigeria's first female combat pilot..." but this page states "Kafayat Sanni is the first female combatant fighter pilot in the Nigerian Air Force", they can't both be first, so who was it? If Liman was first then what is the basis of Sanni's notability? Mztourist (talk) 08:03, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete The first x to do y is not a sign of notability if y is not inherently notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:00, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete coverage on Nigerian Air Force should be sufficient, no need for dedicated page. Ckfasdf (talk) 06:23, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Nigerian Air Force#2010s. Subject does not pass WP:NSOLDIER or WP:GNG, but is mentioned at the target so redirecting is the best option per ATD. Devonian Wombat (talk) 01:28, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per Celestina007: BLPs should utilise the highest sourcing. This does not. As such, given the earth of coverage in reliable sources, it fails NSOLDIER and BASIC. ——Serial ^# 13:41, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
