Non-notable author. Terribly fails WP:AUTHOR. It just simply a vanity article. None of the citations gives either anything substantial or nothing at all about the subject. At best what could find in the citations just run-of-the-mill academic awards. The article creator has a SPA which indicates UPE/CoI spam. RationalPuff (talk) 13:56, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Oaktree b (talk) 21:26, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I looked through Gale Literature, Newspapers.com, Newspaper Archive, Archive.org, JSTOR, and saw no mention of her. The two sources on Google News that seem to talk about her, which are already included in the article, are: an interview[1] and a small blurb about a reading she did, which offhandedly mentioned she was a Awadh Samman awardee.[2]
    Most of the article's sources are self-published/primary sources or interviews. But the ones that actually focus on her seem to be focused on her debut novel (one source shows her debut book The (In)eligible Bachelors was on a bestsellers list under the category of fiction[3]). It seems like she received some attention when she debuted (which is also what she received the Awadh Samman award for) but nothing much since.
    Unless that one award is considered notable enough to pass WP:ANYBIO, it looks like she doesn't pass WP:GNG or WP:AUTHOR. Unless there are other sources, I'd say delete. - Whisperjanes (talk) 00:37, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
