Hi Matty007, Thanks for getting back to me. Would it help the page if I listed previous awards and shortlists as well as the position the author's books reached in The Time bestseller lists - as referenced on The Times/The Sunday Times website? All the best, 77.101.152.99 (talk) 13:55, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I think the Times is subscription, but it probably wouldn't do any harm. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  13:57, 28 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep. She's got best sellers listed at both The Sunday Times and The New York Times.  I'm sure that I could find others if I did more than two random Google searches.  As far as I can tell, the bio (which seems a bit promotional) is correct: she's a best-selling author.  Pretty much guaranteed to be notable. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:00, 28 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep : Article needs improvement, not deletion.  Occult Zone  ( Talk ) 14:01, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * and : are her individual books notable? Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  14:04, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I haven't searched. But if they were then anyone is welcome to create page about them.  Occult Zone  ( Talk ) 14:07, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Dunno. Probably?  She's listed on The Telegraph's Bestselling authors of the decade (2000–2009), so she's probably got enough reviews stacked up to satisfy WP:AUTHOR, and, I would assume, WP:BKCRIT.  Here are a few reviews:, , .  I could probably find more, but I'm a very lazy editor... and it's difficult for me to source reviews for her because I keep getting bestseller lists and promotional junk that clog up my results.  Books are frustrating to source because Metacritic doesn't track them. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:37, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * More than Dr. Zeus? Anyway, nothing came up in Google, which resulted in the nom (even googling parts of reviews), all I could find were interviews in local papers, but given all these sources, I think Mansell is notable, so withdraw this nom. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  14:40, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
