She is not notable at all. The publications she has been published in are non-notable, and seem to be of questionable quality. She is also inactive as a journalist or, if she writes, has no current web presence to speak of. It is a weak biography that should have been removed a long time ago.

- Pinging @Megalibrarygirl:... 104.163.153.162 (talk) 04:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I added some references and tried to clean up a bit. All of my instincts think she's likely notable, but I'm not getting the hits I need to really say either way. I'm flummoxed. If anyone finds more, ping me to weigh in. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 00:34, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. I applaud Megalibrarygirl's efforts, though I agree with her doubts about whether it's enough — if the strongest source that can be provided is her contributor biography at the top of her section in an anthology she contributed to, then that's not really a solid WP:AUTHOR pass because she would have written it herself. And the other two sources I can actually see aren't brilliant ones either (the Gale one just leads me to a login page.) But I ran a ProQuest search as well, and literally the only new hit I got for her there was a brief soundbite from 2008 about her hopes for the Obama presidency. Our inclusion standards in 2018 have been tightened up considerably due to systemic abuse of our processes, and are now much more strongly tied to sourceability — unlike 2005 when people's gut feelings about whether the topic sounded notable could more easily muddy up the waters — and under 2018 standards, she's just not sourceable enough. There's not a single keep argument in the original discussion (and yes, I'm including my own) that would pass muster in an AFD discussion today. Bearcat (talk) 21:25, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete My initial sense was delete. If Megalibrarygirl cannot suss out good refs, I am now certain they do not exist.104.163.153.162 (talk) 00:10, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment It appears as if the subject of the article was the initial author of the article in 2005... or someone with the same name. Theredproject (talk) 04:58, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
