WP:BLP of a journalist, not properly referenced as passing our notability standards for journalists. As always, journalists are not automatically notable enough for Wikipedia articles just because their work exists -- you don't make a journalist notable enough for a Wikipedia article by referencing it to sources where she's the bylined author of coverage of other things, you make a journalist notable enough for a Wikipedia article by referencing it to sources where she's the subject of content written by other people. But the sources here are the former, not the latter, and the article says nothing about her that would be "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to show the latter.

 * Delete I did my best to improve this article, but basically found nothing that infers notability. CT55555 (talk) 15:03, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't find decent secondary sources that confirm she was notable. I was looking at it just now, she has written a lot in a lot of venues, but very little of its been reviewed. The references are primary or passing mentions.    scope_creep Talk  15:32, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
