The result was   delete. I think WP:V comes into play but I was suprised that AUTHOR no longer has the two book threshold. In closing i discarded Sky Attacker's contribution but the lack of external sourcing has been fatal Spartaz Humbug! 23:00, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

She has been publishing for two years only, with no awards. Not notable. VsevolodKrolikov (talk) 22:11, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete she may be notable from the point of view of insignificant and immature creatures who have a lack of understanding of the real world "children", but that is about it. And what little annoying horrors chidren think is meaningless.-- The LegendarySky Attacker 22:49, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Please could we keep this a little more serious...VsevolodKrolikov (talk) 23:33, 1 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep If her books are published by Cambridge University Press, she's notable. Additional reviews are needed, however.  The length of time she has been a writer is irrelevant, and the comment about children's authors   being non-notable is absurd. DGG (talk) 03:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Being published by CUP does is not sufficient for notability. She has written several of their stories for children as part of an educational programme. We could include all kinds of people published under the CUP, OUP and Longman graded reader series as notable authors if your statement were true.VsevolodKrolikov (talk) 09:48, 2 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Correction. There has been no mention about chidren's authors being non-notable. Rather, children's opinions have no value.-- The LegendarySky Attacker 05:53, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Whether or not you consider the CUP books which form part of a series as being notable, having had 5 independent books published by a reputable South African publisher in one year I think is notable. There are numerous authors included on the database who have had fewer books published with no accolades.

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


 * Delete. I can find no evidence that this person meets the criteria of WP:AUTHOR or even of the general notability guideline, as Google Web, News, Books, and Scholar searches, for various combinations of search terms, turn up absolutely no independent sources providing significant coverage of her or her works. The "reviews" by Jay Heale of Mandi and the Moonstones and Out of the Box that she cites on her Web site hardly constitute detailed discussions even of those books, and there appears to be literally nothing else.

 * Delete. Like Deor, my searches came up empty. Doctorfluffy (wanna get fluffed?) 20:47, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
