Shana Ting Lipton

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This person seems to exist and to have written for the LA Times--that much is verified. Notability is not: I don't see her being mentioned in reliable sources discussing her work. I did note a lot of external links in Wikipedia articles to various often trivial publications on her website and I think there's been some fluffing going on in the past. Person does not meet the GNG, and is not sufficiently high profile to pass as an important journalist or writer. Drmies (talk) 16:03, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Agree with nom. There is lots of evidence Lipton has written articles, even in very reliable sources like LA Times, but nobody has written about Lipton. There are many journalists in the world who publish articles every day, it's normal and what journalists do, but being a journalist is not notable on its own. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 02:46, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:BK.  Primary sources exist, but not the vital secondary sources that are required for notability, as in WP:42. Qworty (talk) 05:08, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
