 * I have removed my Speedy Delete. Please note that the article still does not assert that the subject is encyclopedic and may be appropriate for an AfD.  Additionally, it is bad form to place images of such massive size on Wikipedia.  Kershner 22:11, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

"Please note that the article still does not assert that the subject is encyclopedic and may be appropriate for an AfD. Additionally, it is bad form to place images of such massive size on Wikipedia." -- I'm missing something here -- what exactly makes (or doesn't make) a writer encyclopedic? Amy isn't Mark Twain, but she's a wonderful writer. Thanks for making the image smaller; I didn't know what the heck to do to it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlanRodgers  (talk • contribs)  22:36, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Reading WP:BIO might help you understand what makes a person encyclopedic or not. Also, please sign your comments by typing 4 tildes. RedRollerskate 03:51, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

After being asked, I did check the "encyclopedic" rules. There are over 60 Wikipedia entries for writers nominated for the Nebula Award. There are a number of independent reviews of my writing, including Publisher's Weekly and Library Journal. I also meet the "professor test," having published far more than most faculty members. If you "google" my name, over 24,000 results show up. This is the author. ASterling 23:44, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I hope that some editors may want to help update my pages with some new sources of information. Here is a link to the description of a program I gave as Lois Langland Distinguished Alumna in Residence at Scripps College last year and a link to Google Books with my name as search. This is a link to one of the 3 years I was elected and served as treasurer of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America. From the Wikipedia perspective, "Hardcore Critique Advice" may be sufficiently used and referenced to qualify as an influential document. ASterling (talk) 18:02, 19 May 2014 (UTC)ASterling
