Deletion Discussion
Delete I didn't propose this deletion, but I support it for all the reasons listed in the maintenance tag. This article reads like PR and I've tried unsuccessfully to find any good sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Just Another Cringy Username (talk • contribs) 22:29, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Scholarly work
The Scholarly work section has been a topic of concern at the AfD and elsewhere in this talk page. I propose cutting down to a short overview paragraph, sourced to the interview with Drake Newsroom. That sourcing is still not the best, but at least is secondary to the articles. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:18, 13 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Go for it! It's fine to use the scholarly articles as evidence for her scholarly work, though. The issue is more that these articles were selected kind of at random to fulfil the requirements of the students' assignment, rather than because they usefully have something to say about McAlister's work as a whole. The way this article is framed now, it looks like these are her three major works or are otherwise extremely important. -- asilvering (talk) 20:55, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
