The subject is not notable enough to merit Wikipedia article, as it fails WP:ACADEMIC and WP:GNG. All the references article, except Scientific American, are either publications of the subject or the pages of the institutes/organizations the subject works at. Just a single article about the subject in a 3rd party source does not establish notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ubed junejo (talk • contribs)

 * KEEP She is well known in academia and also in popular science. VoltarCH
 * KEEPShe has had an impressive academic career, is a sought after popular science writer / communicator and her first book (with the Hachette Book Group) is due Spring / Summer 2018: (https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/basicbooks-s18-catalog.pdf).

 * Keep "Live Science quoted Hossenfelder as an authority when trying to evaluate the importance of Stephen Hawking's last scientific publication" ... that does it for me.Victuallers (talk) 09:39, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Citation record is enough for WP:PROF; she is quoted as an expert often enough (e.g.,, in addition to refs already in article) to satisfy WP:PROF. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 16:44, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep I agree with the others above. Impressive career, passes PROF. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 17:04, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Aside from potential notability as a physics popularizer, Google scholar shows 6-8 publications with over 100 citations each (count a little fuzzy because it crosses one out for reasons I don't understand and another is just short). That's enough for WP:PROF for me, even in a high-citation field. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:43, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The crossed-out one with 108 citations looks to be a duplicate of the entry above; why it doesn't just list them together, I don't know. But that's still 6 papers with triple-digit citations apiece, plus one more with 99. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 16:53, 30 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - Passes WP:PROF easily. --  Dane talk  00:21, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep agree with all comments above Nejaby (talk) 09:24, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
