I can't find any significant coverage in reliable sources to demonstrate the notability of this writer Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 20:18, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep - there are some possible sources at Google Scholar, as well as at Google books. She died B.W.E. (Before Wikipedia Era), so Google Ghits won't help much. Bearian (talk) 16:23, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Per GBooks, she has written a number of books and has been referenced in others. A "notable feminist leader" per this source and a "distinguished woman scholar" per this one. In Maine, there is a fund in her name: http://www.haneyfund.org/ Still, I'm not familiar with her work enough to know her impact on it. Location (talk) 16:31, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. If we can find a few sources, one or two will do, then I think we should keep it, but at the moment there is not a lot there.  A few sources and then a bit more information (perhaps even unsourced) and we should keep it.  Right now though, there really isn't anything to the article, nothing enticing the other editors to work on it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zellfaze (talk • contribs) 18:26, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - At this point, this article qualifies for a WP:BLPPROD.   Snotty Wong   talk 23:15, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
 * It was created in 2007 though?--Milowent • talkblp-r 00:02, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Although I might be mistaken, but is the BLP policy not meant for living persons (I believe it says somewhere that "it does not apply to the deceased"). As Elly Haney died in 1999, I do not think that policy is applicable. -- JHvW  (talk)   03:44, 21 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep I click the Google news search at the top of this AFD, and the first result is a news article all about her. Clearly notable.   D r e a m Focus  14:27, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep She appears to be notable. The Bangor Daily News says she has had "a major impact on Maine." . She received an award from the University of Maine. . The United Church Foundation established a "Eleanor Humes Haney fund". --MelanieN (talk) 02:38, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: I added these references to the article. --MelanieN (talk) 14:45, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
