There is no secondary source coverage of Ms. Cook that I can find. All of the hits are listings of books that she has written at booksellers, but there is no coverage of the author outside of the normal author's bio that gets printed on the dust jacket. Gigs (talk) 19:34, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Seems to be a fairly well known minor author with a number of primary and secondary sources to establish notability. scope_creep (talk) 23:33, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. Searches for the subject's name along with her supposedly best-known books and with the word "hymn" don't seem to find any significant coverage in independent reliable sources:

 * Comment Dude, Google does not make for independent reliable sources. Did you take the time to search for the other half dozen books she has written, which also help establish notability. scope_creep (talk) 20:48, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Can you show us any independent reliable sources that have significant coverage of those books? Phil Bridger (talk) 21:42, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

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


 * Delete. The quantity of books a person writes is not relevant. All of the books are obscure as the author; there's little coverage out there of the author or her books, neither meet the WP:NBOOK guidelines. A person could churn out a hundred books and still not be notable by Wikipedia standards; productivity does not reflect notability. --res Laozi speak  05:49, 19 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Refs lacking to support notability per WP:BIO. Writing of any number of obscure works does not demonstrate notability. Reliable and independent secondary sources are requireed. Edison (talk) 14:24, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
