Is this writer sufficiently notable? It looks like she has published only two novels, neither of which seemed to draw much response. I don't think this is quite enough for notability. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 09:16, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Both books are self-published. I can't find the origin of her other identifiable work "Secret of Silk", which seems to have sunk with little trace, or to be only available under a non-English version of the title. The only references I can see in a quick sweep of the article's history are to literary agencies, at neither of which I can find her name. Not unless Pontas have an indexing system that classes her under something other than J, O or Y. I'm open to revision if better evidence of notability can be found.

 * To clarify, 'Butterfly' is the book currently being publicised, there's another one also at Amazon, and 'Secret of Life' is the currently disappeared and presumably earliest one. Peridon (talk) 11:27, 5 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. I did a search and was unable to see where she or her books are notable enough to pass Wikipedia's notability guidelines. There were some false hits for an anthropologist by the same name, but nothing specifically for this Julie O'Yang that would show she's notable.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   05:18, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
