This is sameless self-promotion by some girl who has done nothing to deserve her own Wikipedia article Barbaraferreira (talk) 18:46, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

I completely agree. It's definitely self promotion, and who has even heard of her? This is an example of why professors don't let students use wikipedia: it can be edited by ANYONE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.140.197.41 (talk) 19:59, 13 May 2011 (UTC) I third this motion. Useless waste of space. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.235.36.126 (talk) 04:13, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Disagree. As indicated in the references cited on the article, she is an author with books published by Penguin and Random House, a TV host for major networks, and has been featured in major publications such as The New Yorker. For what it's worth as the main contributor to the article, I'm fairly certain I'm not her. Feather Jonah (talk) 10:22, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

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


 * Strong keep. This blogger passes WP:BIO in more ways than one, and the article is adequately and reliably sourced. I question whether this nomination was done in good faith (or maybe if there's even some meatpuppetry going on) because I find it highly suspicious that a user's very first contribution is an AfD.  Erpert  Who is this guy? 04:28, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - This blogger is definitely notable and the wording of the article does not suggest self promotion. Also as Erpert said, first edit AfD doesn't seem right, but I'm assuming good faith. JoshuaJohnLee talk softly, please 04:31, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Massive WP:RS coverage. Chester Markel (talk) 05:09, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Has large amount of reliable sources, so passes WP:N. This may be a possible bad faith nomination. D oh5678  Talk  15:18, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per Erpert et al. A quick skim through the article and the references is more than enough to establish notability - frankieMR (talk) 16:52, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
