- Keep A major political figure and martyr of Myanmar's democracy. She has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources The Women of 1988, Film tells story of young student shot dead in 1988, 28 years later, Myanmar bids adieu to activist who died fighting for democracy, Democracy fulfills last wish of Myanmar teen, so passes WP:GNG and deserves to be kept.

- Taung Tan, that all does not changes the fact that the subject is only notable because of a single event. Please take notice of WP:BLP1E. CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:27, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
- WP:BLP1E Says "WP:BLP1E should be applied only to biographies of living people, or those who have recently died, and to biographies of low-profile individuals". Do any of these criteria apply? Thincat (talk) 19:32, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thincat, your comment is a little bit out of context:" If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event" = TRUE " If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual"=IMO also TRUE CommanderWaterford (talk) 21:22, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

- Keep WP:BLP1E explicitly says that it applies only to people who are still alive. WP:BIO1E applies to individuals who have died. Also, as the subject of this article is said to be notable because she was killed in the event that made her notable, we could look at WP:VICTIM: "The historic significance is indicated by persistent coverage of the event in reliable secondary sources that devote significant attention to the individual's role." And it appears that there is at least one reliable independent secondary source already listed in the article with a title that says "28 years later". So this isn't just a person who was mentioned in sources at the time, but also mentioned in sources many years later. Hyperion35 (talk) 22:40, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Win Ma Oo is notable for more than one event: her death, her becoming an emblem for the opposition to Myanmar's government, and her widely publicized last rites 28 years later. Her page clearly does not violate any of the rules prescribing pages be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lahire23 (talk • contribs) 00:40, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Win Maw Oo has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. And it is clear that this is notable. So , it deserves to be kept.Marcus MT (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 14:01, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
