I don't see how any of this passes WP:NPROF. All sources are primary, lots of her research is published in predatory journals. Both her books are self-published. Her "firsts" are incredibly specifics "The first X from Y's Z department to become a subtype of B". &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 15:41, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, noting that the article was created by an editor, User:Healthandhope who has edited on no other topic and was later updated by very-similarly-named User:Healthhopes in their only edit, suggesting possible COI or autobio. Her personal website seems to exist solely to promote her two books. Does not appear to be notable.  Pam  D  09:21, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete – not notable. A handful of citations doesn't suffice for an WP:NPROF crit. 1 pass, and none of the other NPROF criteria seem to be met. Unsurprisingly, her self-published books haven't attracted the critical attention needed to meet WP:NAUTHOR. My search found zero significant coverage in independent reliable sources, so she's not notable under the GNG/WP:BASIC either. I don't doubt that Obilade is a talented scholar, but nonetheless she doesn't seem to meet any of our notability guidelines. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:53, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
