Proposed deletion of Palmyra Jackson


The article Palmyra Jackson has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Not close to passing WP:SCHOLAR or WP:GNG. Recent college graduate who has only published one research article."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. – Thjarkur (talk) 13:15, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

Choosing subjects for articles
Hello Eschindel, wanted to give some pointers about how best to select subjects for articles here. Have a look at the guideline Notability (academics) and our general notability guidelines. We usually don't include articles about recent college graduates who have not yet had much of an impact on their field. If you are interested in contributing articles about women in STEM, you could start by finding those who have had a long career and have had a large impact on their field, if they have held a named chair they are almost always notable enough for inclusion. Another way to select is to find those who have had significant coverage about them in multiple reliable independant sources such as national newspapers. If you ever have any questions, come ask at the Teahouse :) – Thjarkur (talk) 13:23, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
