No independent sources, lacks notability. The sources are either from organisations she works for, or an article she wrote. Looking for better sources only produced a short list of similar sources, and some passing mentions. Nothing in Google News. Her function of "deputy leader" is an internal job in the party, not a position in a parliament. Fram (talk) 07:18, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I started the stub for Women in Red. As a deputy leader of a political party the article will likely be expanded in future. If there's an issue I can redirect to Die Linke. Moondragon21 (talk) 20:30, 6 July 2023 (UTC)<[reply]

Delete Does not appear to have been significantly covered by GNG sources, the articles linked in the article have the problems identified by the nominator, there's no German language article to easily check to see if we've missed sources here, and a quick search brings up nothing else of note. Since I may have missed German sources and this was a Women in Red stub, I have absolutely no problem having the article recreated if it meets GNG. SportingFlyer T·C 17:46, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, albeit without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when she's got more coverage. Deputy leader of a political party is not an "inherently" notable role that guarantees automatic inclusion in Wikipedia per se, but the referencing here is far, far too heavily dependent on primary sources that aren't support for notability at all — we require reliable source coverage independently analyzing her work in media and/or books, not content self-published by her own party or other organizations she's been directly affiliated with. And if she's already held the role for five months, then the possibility of more media coverage appearing in the future isn't enough to overrule the lack of any media coverage already existing now: the time to start an article about her will be if and when that possible future media coverage actually happens.
