Alice Sanders
Alice Sanders does not appear in any of the following:
- Louis Epstein: The Oldest Human Beings — list of validly-documented supercentenarians (by age and chronological), including a chronological list of the oldest living listed persons since 1955 (however, for a time in the 1960s the oldest living person did not officially reach supercentenarian status).
- Supercentenarian tables at the Gerontology Research Group
- International Database on Longevity
- World's Oldest People hosted by Yahoo! Groups
She is not on any validated source that I can find, so even though she may be listed on the Portuguese Wiki, she should be listed here as unverified, if at all. TFBCT1 (talk) 02:41, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
I just copied this line from the 2007 deaths in Supercentenarian tables "65 Portugal (Azores) U.S. (CA) Alice Sanders May 12, 1897 Nov. 7, 2007 110 179 W F Filipe Prista Lucas" I only took ten seconds to find this record.Japf (talk) 13:43, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
I have investigated what happened. The documents that GRG had were about a girl born "Alzira Catarina Matos". Only the death certificate confirmed that Alice Sanders and Alzira Matos were the same person, and her case could only be validated after her death.That's why she doesn't appear in other places.

I've replaced "Incumbent" in the succession box with "Current". I've been reverted, with no edit summary. Here's my view:
If there's anything in the wikipedia or wiktionary entries for "Incumbent" that suggests the use of that word in a succession box about longevity, it's exceedingly well-hidden. This is all of a piece with the deeply unencyclopedic view that old age is a contest, whose "winners," "record-holders," and "record-breakers" are inherently notable.
What's yours? David in DC (talk) 01:55, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- im ok with incumbant current even to be determined so whatever to majority decides is fine with me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Longevitydude (talk • contribs) 12:36, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
