Apart from date of birth, we have quite some details here, do you think it is ready to be moved to Article space? - abhi (talk) 06:25, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have sources for where and when she was born? This is not mandatory, but if you don't have any, remove the question marked material from the text. Bloomberg says she is 59 by the way. Other than that, an infobox would be nice ({{Infobox person}}), and categorization. --Muhandes (talk) 07:40, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't find her date of birth, checked many articles even alumni portal. Will try more today. Otherwise as you suggested move the article after removing that part.
It was published in 1999, so i doubt that we can find a link from SFBT itself. Probably they did not have a online version back then? I coudn't find any link, best i found was business wire. Although all other links we have referenced also mention this. - abhi (talk) 00:30, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
An editor at DYK raised a concern about it. Basically it is a reliable source quoting that another publication found her "one of the most influential businesswomen in the Bay Area", but without either the source or the article actually giving any indication why. I removed it until such indication is brought. --Muhandes (talk) 09:30, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
