Non-notable writer. Fails WP:AUTHOR, WP:BIO and WP:SIGCOV. scope_creep^Talk 15:12, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I'm the author of the article and here's why it should be kept: She does not fail WP:AUTHOR as one of her books was a finalist for the 2017 Governor General Literary Award and therefore qualifies under criteria #3. She's also a notable person, as independant reliable sources give her coverage. I can dig through newspapers and add more, which was part of the reason I originally had the article in draft space (as I planned to improve it). I was busy, and do other stuff on-wiki in the meantime. Yesterday, the draft was deleted under G13 as abandoned, and I submitted a WP:REFUND request to contunie working on it. I moved it to mainspace to prevent it from being deleted again under G13 if I got busy again, as I'm a grade 12 student and I might not be as active on Wikipedia for periods of time because of my obligations as a student.

Keep – The author was interviewed by CBC, Canada's national public broadcaster for radio and TV [1]. The author also was interviewed by the Toronto Star (Canada's highest-circulation newspaper) for a story about the house she lives in [2]. Her book, Everything Beautiful is Not Ruined won the White Pine Award, a national Canadian award. [3] The book was reviewed by The Globe and Mail [4], Teen Vogue [5], and others. CBC named it one of the best Canadian YA/children's books of 2017 [6] and one of 150 books on "The great Canadian reading list" [7]. Another book, Falling Under was reviewed by Good Housekeeping [8]. She passes the WP:NBIO/WP:NAUTHOR bar for me. – Levivich 17:26, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
