Bio for a person who clearly has access to a very efficient PR team - searching for sources yields large numbers of press releases and other primary sources all showering her with accolades, but nothing that serves to meet WP:GNG. She's a motivational speaker, and she's done a lot of motivational speaking (cos that's her job, innit), but that doesn't in itself make her notable. bonadea contributions talk 15:23, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

FTR, I have cleaned it up a bit and removed some exaggerated/unsourced claims - the pre-cleanup version was a borderline G11 case. --bonadea contributions talk 15:26, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I can't find a thing about this particular "Terry Hawkins" on Gnews. Other people, yes. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:27, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Cannot find anything obvious to support notability, unless you count large volumes of primary material but in many different sources. No or very little strong IRSS - however is this due to systemic bias. If the person was male would there be more IRSS in more main stream media. If others think so too I would agree to keep as a counter to systemic bias PROVIDED the article gets referenced by something other than her own web site.

  • Delete, systemic bias is a problem, but we simply cannot and should not keep biographies of living people that do not have neutral and substantial sources to back them up. Lankiveil (speak to me) 09:38, 10 February 2017 (UTC).[reply]
