This is poorly sourced for a BLP. The one sourced provided does not have much substance. Further I would question the notability of the subject. A google search only turned up her books. Trout 71 16:23, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - Searches at News, Books and thefreelibrary found nothing but Highbeam found a few results so I thought I would search at paywall Newsbank for old articles but found nothing. Unfortunately, it seems she hasn't received considerable coverage and there's no target for moving elsewhere. SwisterTwister   talk  20:56, 25 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - Forgive the slowness here but this is the first deletion discussion I've entered into. Whilst the page needs additional citations and may be marked as such, this does not merit deletion by itself - merely that the list of sources should be improved. The subject satisfies the general notability criteria of having significant and reliable coverage - for example, it has been established that Google returns multiple results. A basic Amazon search alone, whilst not ideal, is classified as a reliable source and identifies a number of publications; this is independent of the subject. As SwisterTwister pointed out, Highbeam returned results. I'm unclear why Trout  71 feels that a professional author with a history of verifiable published works available through major retailers to the world at large, that do not require original research to discover conflicts in any way with the requirements of notability. Checking the Biographies of living persons and Proposed deletion of biographies of living people, I find nothing about the article that contravenes the guidelines.

 * Redirect to Richard Whittington-Egan, with whom she has co-authored non-notable books. I can't find any significant coverage of her or her books. Most of her work is published by Neil Wilson, a small Scottish independent house, so it's not vanity publishing but equally it's not the most prestigious or free-spending firm. I'm not sure if there's much point in merging; it lacks references to reliable independent sources and there's not much information aside from the bibliography, which if she isn't notable doesn't seem very relevant to her husband's article.
