Delete. Little impact on GS. Too early? Xxanthippe (talk) 02:45, 17 March 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Question: what does "little impact on GS" mean? What is "GS"? --do ncr am 01:43, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Google scholar. Click on link 1 inch above, where appear a total of 8 citations to her work from other scholars. To pass WP:Prof#C1 many hundred, if not 1000, are expected. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:59, 18 March 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Keep, tentatively. Stuntz has apparently authored several books, some of which have garnered awards. --do ncr am 01:43, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Just writing stuff is not enough. It is necessary to have the stuff noted by others. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:35, 19 March 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Keep (Weak) -- will trim the excess, non-useful references if kept. Her book "Hers," etc. has 204 library holdings which is generally a little above the minimum level needed to show an impact being made for an academic book. Combined with a full professor position seems to clear the average professor test with some room to spare. GS is a terrible reference for humanities academics and lack of impact there is meaningless. Many star scholars have GS hits in the single digits. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 03:11, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Library holdings are one of the weakest indicators of notability. Libraries often order books by rote and volumes may sit on shelves for eternity without being opened. Library borrowings would be more indicative but are not yet available. They may be one day. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:35, 19 March 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
