WP:TOOSOON author. WP:BEFORE comes up with no significant refs. National award mentioned in article was for a prize awarded to high-school students. Fails WP:GNG. HappyValleyEditor (talk) 06:46, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep She has already won an important national award.--Ipigott (talk) 09:38, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Either TOOSOON or BLP1E. The award that she won is one that is given to 2000 entrants each year, so although it is an honor, it is not the same as being a single winner. here. I did find her award-winning works here. LaMona (talk) 18:21, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, Royer's poetry has appeared/ she is listed as a contributor in/to numerous magazines/journals (not sure how notable they are - none have wikiarticles) ie. (in addition to those mentioned in the article) [1] Cleaver Magazine, [2] Open Minds Quarterly, [3] Grey Sparrow Journal, [4], Phree Write Magazine [5], The James Franco Review [6], Red Rose Review [7], Crack The Spine Literary Magazine [8], Vine Leaves Literary Journal. However, this does not count towards notability, according to WP:POETRY the subject needs to meet WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, or WP:CREATIVE, ie. "created .. a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.", having the work(s) appear in magazines is not enough.

Comment Coolabahapple, I'm not sure what you are saying in the last sentence of your comment-- the phrasing is unclear with the quote. In any case, the links you give are for publications of her work rather than "multiple independent periodical articles or reviews" about her work, which is what is needed.

Now I get what you are saying. How are you voting? You seem to be saying that sources are weak.HappyValleyEditor (talk) 03:51, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi HappyValleyEditor, as afd is not a vote, occasionally (very occasionally

) i only comment. Coolabahapple (talk) 05:00, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And I, for one, always appreciate your comments. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:36, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Simply does not pass WP:GNG as revealed in searches, and does not appear to pass WP:CREATIVE. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:36, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
