 * Redirect to Purpose Driven Life. I think that some of the info (such as her writing a book about the ordeal) is worth keeping, but only on the PDL page. Other than that she hasn't really done anything exceedingly notable that can't be condensed into an additional 3-5 sentences on the PDL page. Tokyogirl79 (talk) 14:52, 23 August 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79
 * I added in a few sentences to Purpose Driven Life so now there's really no reason for the author page to really exist since all of the info that Smith is really known for is already available in the PDL page. Tokyogirl79 (talk) 13:51, 24 August 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79
 * Redirect as a result of Tokyogirl179's work at merging the material in to Purpose Driven Life. Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 16:09, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
