- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Non notable writer, unreferenced BLP, unsourced from any reputable sources and none show up on Google. Animatronic Fruit Loop (talk) 18:38, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. No dice. Seems to be a new entrant to the world of writing. No coverage other than the books equivalent of IMDB. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:04, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. Has been reviewed in the Sunday NYTimes Book Review [1], about as notable coverage as books/writers get. While not 100% proof of notability, the likelihood that no other coverage exists for an NYTBR-reviewed writer is so vanishingly small that we should infer notability. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 01:07, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletion discussions. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:55, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. NYT review not quite enough. Notability may be achieved in future but not yet. Xxanthippe (talk) 08:00, 29 September 2009 (UTC).
- Keep Meets general content requirements. Notable writer google books reveals hits including that she is a notable translator too. Like 90% of our other articles needs expansion and referencing. I do not believe that systematically going through the encyclopedia starting from aa and trying to delete anything which isn't start class as Animatronic is clearly doing is a good idea.

- Comment According to WorldCat[2], the writer publishes her fiction under the names of Patricia Aakhus McDowell, and Patricia McDowell -- and uses Patricia Aakus for her academic works. DGG ( talk ) 11:45, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- Actually you'll find a lot of her academic works in google book under Patricia A. McDowell. Himalayan 11:51, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- all the more reason for a thorough check before nominating. time to legislate WP:BEFORE. The nom could have found this,too. DGG ( talk ) 12:13, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- Speedy keep clearly notable with minimal investigation.--Buridan (talk) 17:12, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
