I thought this was just a fluffy COI-inflected biography but the subject was notable, but on second thoughts I'm not so sure: is there really any proper secondary sourcing here? The position the subject occupies is not in itself notable, but it is possible that she is; I really can't find any secondary sourcing, and nothing on the internet besides the usual professional (primary) links.

 * Delete. Looking for sources is challenging, because search results are swamped by things she's written, but with that caveat I'm currently unable to find anything biographical from a reasonable source. Clearly a prolific commentator, but that's not the same thing as being notable. If someone else finds sources I'm willing to reconsider. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:18, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Vanamonde, we've had such discussions before--it's harder for journalists to prove their notability because they often don't generate meta commentary. This subject may well be more important than a whole bunch of YouTubers who have articles--but if there's no coverage, there's no coverage... Drmies (talk) 18:28, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Agreed on all counts. Vanamonde (Talk) 18:34, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete. There is a reason why her biological data is so hard to source as there is so little SIGCOV on her. Wikipedia is becoming the main platform of her notability, which is not right. 31.187.2.233 (talk) 17:00, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
