Notability not established. This article appears to be an autobiography (based on similarity of the contributing editor's name (Iwroteit1) the the subject's company name (Ingrid Wrote It)), and all references are self-published press releases or blogs.

 * Keep There are third party references covering the subject in the article. Please explain why this does not constitute notability. patsw (talk) 21:43, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment The article contains the following references (as of this writing):
 * http://www.thewritersmagic.com - Allen's own website
 * http://www.blackmafiaprincess.com - Website for Allen's book
 * http://www.1888pressrelease.com/ingrid-n-allen-resigns-from-triumph-the-magazine-and-moves-pr-164780.html - Press release indicating Allen had left the employment of Triumph magazine, which itself lacks notability. (Note, this is not Triumph, a magazine that ceased publication in 1975.)
 * http://oneworldonevision.wordpress.com/about-the-author-ingrid-n-allen-2/ - Blog
 * http://globalgrind.com/channel/gossip/content/1131171/ingrid-n-allen-executive-editor/?sc=1 - Gossip blog entry, created by Allen herself (or someone else at her website)
 * Now tell me how any of this amounts to significant third party coverage? WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:54, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete I tend to agree with WikiDan - these sources are not significant, nor reliable on their own to assert notability. Furthermore, this article should probably be seriously pruned per WP:BLP - whether it's deleted or not.
 * Delete No significant third party coverage in reliable sources indicate a non-notable author/poem. Armbrust  Talk  Contribs  15:56, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete: Sourced only by self-published entry sites, personal websites and blogs. The degree that we can take her "awards" seriously is that they come from the International Library of Poetry, which outfit's Wikipedia article is instructive.   Ravenswing  16:55, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
