Margaret Donnelly

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Résumé-like BLP of a writer and politician, not properly sourced as having any strong claim to passing our inclusion standards for any of her occupations. Her notability claim as a politician is that she once unsuccessfully ran for mayor of a city, which does not satisfy WP:NPOL; her notability claim as a writer is that she received an honorable mention (but not an actual win) for a literary award, sourced only to a non-notable and unreliable blog rather than any GNG-worthy coverage about her writing -- and other than that, the article is serving primarily as a coatrack for advertorialized plot summaries of her books and bulletpointed résumé sections rather than an encyclopedia article. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat (talk) 19:38, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete there’s an awful lot of Margaret Donnellys including several lawyers so it’s possible I’ve missed something but I don’t see anything in a search that indicates notability for this one. Also I note the article was created by a single-edit SPA. Mccapra (talk) 05:32, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - I did my due diligence using various search methods and cannot find how this subject meets WP:GNG or WP:NAUTHOR. Missvain (talk) 19:52, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
