 * – ( View AfD View log )

(A previous PROD for this page was removed ) Article fails WP:GNG, and Notability (books). Even if the author's work is notable (her book is currently being afded too) I still don't think it meets the "historically significant" part of WP:BKCRIT.  Just ' i ' yaya  07:11, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Weak keep: I agree with the OP's criticisms so I've made significant changes to the page in an attempt to meet WP:GNG, although it's still a very weak page. I could only find a couple of sources via a ProQuest database search of Australian and New Zealand newspapers (deeper and broader than Google); and | this single source via Google, that really doesn't qualify anyway but I've included it so the community can see a 'best effort'. I won't be offended if the consensus is to delete! Cabrils (talk) 23:40, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep As seen in the books afd Austlit lists 5 articles on that book. It also lists one on her other book . A search of newsbank finds more on her, that book and her work in raising awareness around anorexia, some listed below. Enough coverage. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:20, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks duffbeerforme. I've added those references and cleaned up the copy some more. I think the page looks respectable now and clearly passes WP:GNG. Cabrils (talk) 22:43, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
