seems to be an advertisement. RadManCF (talk) 22:25, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as an ad. Also, the first three paragraphs are a copyright violation of this page. Them From Space 23:26, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - I've stubbified the article and added sources. It looks like she just about meets WP:GNG. Panyd^{The muffin is not subtle} 23:37, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete until GNG is established...sorry Panyd, "just about meets" doesn't really cut it. CTJF83 chat 06:55, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:BIO - I don't consider the coverage in the sources to be significant - they basically confirm that she exists and she is who she says she is. Ray^Talk 07:13, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Add to the above that she is president of a non-notable (red-linked) organization, wrote a book that is held by < 20 institutions, won a local teaching award, and used to lecture at two universities. GS shows 1 hit to the book and no citations to any work (h-index = 0). Way short of WP:PROF. Respectfully, Agricola44 (talk) 15:43, 8 March 2010 (UTC).[reply]
Delete. Notability under any category not found. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:31, 9 March 2010 (UTC).[reply]
