Nomination on behalf of User:121.73.149.66, rationale is: "Definitely not notable under WP:Author" Pgallert (talk) 10:28, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, sorry, I'm the nominating user but was having problems with my account, and figuring out the Afd process. The problem with this article is that this person is not notable as an author. I came accross this article when trying to find some information about this person: I certainly didn't expect to find it on wikipedia, although I note that she has a notable husband. She may become sufficiently notable in the future, but wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Also, could someone remove the other AFD Rangataua huntaway (talk)

- Delete "she is considered one of New Zealand's most promising young poets". 'Promising' means 'not quite there yet' in my book. Looks like it may not be long, but WP:CRYSTAL means we cannot take the long view on 'promise'. Peridon (talk) 23:55, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as non-notable. Note that the refs do not give notability. Two are blogs etc. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 05:22, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Recent edits, since the AfD tag was added, have improved the page. However I don't think they do anything to change the fact that she does not meet notability. Other content, such as that relating to Fiona Kidman, could be merged into rewrites of other pages. Perhaps an editor could be given permission, alternatively, to retain the article on their user page in anticipation of the fact the author may become notable.

- keep technically, sufficient reviews for notability, though it is borderline. DGG ( talk ) 02:32, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
