Deema Shehabi

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A published poet. She does not appear to have satisfied WP:AUTHOR or WP:BIO. Being nominated for a "Pushcart Prize" without having won any major prize does not seem sufficient. Edison (talk) 19:01, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment Although I placed the stub to replace an article deleted by copyvio, I had doubts about the notability myself at the time (expressed in the template). :) Honestly, I suspect this would have been a successful PROD. But in case it matters to anyone, these are links that were in the now-deleted version:
 * Profile of Deema Shehabi at the Institute for Middle East Understanding
 * Valparaiso Poetry Review
 * OF HARVEST AND FLIGHT, Valparaiso Poetry Review
 * Ulysses Press
 * Nuclear Times
 * Veggie Life
 * Featured Poet, Poetry Daily
 * Art Matters
 * A number of those links are now dead, but I think there's nothing in there that secures notability myself. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:04, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep Reworked the piece. Since the stub was written, she has published 3 books, served as VP of Radius of Arab-American Writers, Inc. and clearly meets GNG at the very least. SusunW (talk) 01:08, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - The article has certainly been improved compared to before. SwisterTwister   talk  05:34, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
