Run-of-the-mill! Fails WP:GNG. She is a skilled but not particularly well-known podcaster, according to my thorough investigation. PlayOboe (talk) 04:45, 3 August 2022 (UTC) Blocked sock. Beccaynr (talk) 00:20, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - I did some investigation too about things missing from the article. 1) Zibby Owens: The New York woman upending the publishing scene on The Jerusalem Post on 8th July 2022. 2) Author on Good Morning America [1] 3) interview about her new book on Good Morning America 4) "Owens has staged an awards show to honor the best books, and even started her own publishing company, Zibby Books." at ABC7NY 5) Owens interview on Forbes, 6) Owens' book on Penguin Random House 7) Owens on CNN 8) Owens on Business Insider 9) Owens on Psychology Today 10) Owens on Publishers Weekly. So I think she deserves an article for the amount of notable media featuring her. Jjanhone (talk) 07:31, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
:::Comment Here is my evaluation of the sources you provided: 1) Zibby Owens: The New York woman upending the publishing scene :Running a publishing company and promoting reading don't automatically make someone notable. 2) [2] : An article recommending books on a programme or website. 3) Forbes : Same as Good Morning America article. 4) Other articles are promotional and don't indicate her notability. I don't think those articles are suffice to prove her notability. Good day!PlayOboe (talk) 09:10, 3 August 2022 (UTC) Blocked sock. Beccaynr (talk) 00:20, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

- Weak keep Authored some books, one Kirkus review here [3]. Business Insider piece on her [4]. She seems to review books for the Washington Post, having several columns published. Other papers reprint her reviews, she might just pass the notability bar. Oaktree b (talk) 13:05, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
:::Comment: Examined those articles carefully. It says a lot to be a billionaire's daughter. PlayOboe (talk) 17:38, 6 August 2022 (UTC) Blocked sock. Beccaynr (talk) 00:20, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
