The article reads like a LinkedIn page, it does not meet the usual criteria for the notability of an academic at WP:ACADEMIC. I don't think that there is a strong argument for inclusion due to WP:SIGCOV, many of the sources used in the article currently only mention her tweets briefly. She is a mid-level (early career) academic and frankly if she has a page then there will be many thousands of academics who also qualify. Mountaincirque talk 11:19, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

 * Weak delete. The article has no assertion of GNG notability, and I see mostly passing mentions (although a fair number of those).  There is a human interest story about the subject here, but I am not convinced that this contributes much to notability.  The citation record looks like a start towards WP:NPROF C1, but a fair bit WP:TOOSOON.  She is listed as editor-in-chief on Brill Research Perspectives in Diplomacy and Foreign Policy , but I don't think this new journal counts as "well established".  Watching the conversation in case better evidence of notability arises. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:06, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Draftify: a fair bit WP:TOOSOON but it's leaning to WP:NPROF. There is some WP:SIGCOV according to Russ Woodroofe. --  Wesoree  ( talk · contribs ) 14:18, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. Tend to agree that this is a case of too early career, given the PhD date of 2016. There is only a single authored book, so probably Not yet notable under WP:AUTHOR. No point in moving to draft as it will just be deleted in 6 months, but if the creator/editors wanted to a userspace copy that would make sense (when the subject publishes a second authored book there is a good chance that AUTHOR will be met) .

 * I agree that userification might be a better solution than draftification, assuming or another editor is willing to take it up.  (I'm concerned that draftification is likely to turn into quiet deletion after 6 months.)  But I didn't see the authored book?  Public Diplomacy in the Digital Age is a journal article.

 * Thanks for clarifying that; I was wondering why I could not find book reviews. Espresso Addict (talk) 13:39, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Userify. That actually is a vote for "Weak Delete" on the basis of a little below the critera for WP:PROF (via TOOSOON) and a bit too little on GNG (for Twitter citations).  But it's one of these cases where "is it hurting or helping the encyclopedia" makes me think a standard delete is the wrong outcome--it's not promotional, factual, and is about a scholar who is likely (via professional and public engagement) to reach the bar in the near future (but not the 6-months for draft keeping).  Wishing there were a "Delete but previous versions available to all registered users" outcome available. -- Michael Scott Asato Cuthbert (talk) 20:52, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:GNG. NYC Guru (talk) 08:29, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
