A non-notable businessperson fails WP:GNG, WP:NBIO; contested draftification returned to mainspace with no improvements. The sources are all WP:PRIMARYSOURCE Q&A interviews ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]; routine news in WP:TRADES publications ([7]); non-independent affiliated sources/official bios ([8], [9], [10], [11]); and WP:TRIVIALMENTIONs ([12], [13], [14]). A non-bylined piece in WP:FORBES is not considered reliable. There is also a WP:FOXNEWS profile that reads like churnalism (it is almost entirely based on comments she posted on Facebook). Both Forbes and Fox are of questionable reliability per WP:RSP. Meanwhile, in my WP:BEFORE search I looked for evidence that her book Dreaming Green had been reviewed, but I only found one single-paragraph capsule review and thus she does not qualify under WP:NAUTHOR. Finally, the article claims she is an Emmy and Peabody winner, but the sources for this claim are all affiliated with her (usually her official bio provided with speaking engagements and press releases). The Emmy site does not list her in its list of winners and nominees. (It appears that she may have won a NY Regional Emmy as part of a larger news team, which is generally not considered the kind of "major award" to qualify one under WP:ANYBIO.) She also does not appear in the search results for Peabody award winners or on the Dupont Award's website. Overall, no sources that are both reliable and independent validate her claims to major awards. Dclemens1971 (talk) 21:15, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Which sources are SIGCOV?? Dclemens1971 (talk) 03:55, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting. Impressive deletion nominating statement that any editors arguing to Keep will have to counter.

• Comment. On further review/reflection, the only book review of any substance is the Universal Press Syndicate review flagged by Silver seren. The others are single-paragraph capsule summaries. I don't think there's a pass here on NCREATIVE. Dclemens1971 (talk) 01:11, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete References seem tangential at best and often advertorial. Reading the article in its current form, it's unclear how notability thresholds could be eventually met. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 13:49, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
