No evidence of notability as per WP:ACADEMIC. Spyder212 (talk) 04:09, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lean keep: (Disclaimer, article creator) I definitely agree that it's right on the line. But she's been mentioned around 30-40 times in the popular press/scientific literature: which seems to narrowly meet the criteria of notability. I don't particularly care one way or another, though. And it can temporarily be moved to my private sandbox: if that's something that you prefer for now. I certainly don't think it's a vital article – probably only slightly meeting the criteria of being included – but I'll be updating it and adding more sources within the next week as well. It's all up to you. AttaAx (talk) 04:55, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The h-index of around 8, with top cited paprer having 32 cites in GScholar, far too low for WP:PROF#C1, and nothing else to indicate notablity per WP:PROF or on any other grounds. Nsk92 (talk) 10:18, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. She appears not to pass WP:PROF#C1 and neither the references provided in the article nor what I can find from searching point to any other kind of notability. Mentions in popular press are not good enough; we need in-depth coverage of her or of her work. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:13, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Looks WP:TOOSOON for WP:NPROF C1, no signs of GNG or of any other notability. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 23:25, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
