@ BeutifulWordsmith, thank for starting this draft. It's a good start - needs some work. I'll help you add some more detail. Also needs good sources. Lmk if I can be of any help. SilverhairedHarry ( talk) 15:41, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- Okay. What type of sources would be helpful? I have a book registered with the library of congress and they’re on Amazon of late. Tell me what we need.

- This topic will need to meet Wikipedia's notability test in order for the article to be fully published. The best way to explain it is this. There are two main parts of Notability. First: For individual people, the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice"or "note"—that is, "remarkable" or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life. I would emphasize anything about Jennifer Gregory Arrington that would be remarkable and interesting like that. Put it as close to the top of the article as possible. Simply being a published author is not enough. If we can pass that hurdle, then we look at the second part of Notability: which deals with the sources. There needs to be significant coverage of her from multiple primary sources from different publications that are not connected to her.
