Promo, not meeting GNG. Undergraduates are not notable unless they have extensive coverage in media. Having your work "recognized" does not mean winning an award. I find no mentions of this individual. Oaktree b ( talk) 00:51, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. For one thing, because the only notability here is academic, it's entirely from undergraduate student awards, and
our guideline for academic notability explicitly states that
awards and honors for academic student achievements (at either high school, undergraduate or graduate level) do not qualify
. For another, because it puts an inappropriate level of pressure on someone presumably about to start graduate study to publicize their academic achievements in this way. Wait a few years until they've started to establish themselves. Incidentally, we might also want to take a closer look at Letong (Carina) Hong, another very recent winner of the same award (not for purposes of comparison in this AfD – see WP:WAX – but as another case where similar reasoning is likely to apply.) — David Eppstein ( talk) 01:22, 15 March 2023 (UTC) - Delete, as per David. Hopefully in a few years she will be back with a better case for inclusion. McKay ( talk) 04:19, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

- Strong Delete As Faye Jackson herself, I also recommend deletion :)
- I didn't create the article myself. Although a non-academic friend of mine did on a whim after seeing that previous winners of the Schafer prize had a page. After reading the notability requirements it definitely doesn't fit! Alittledelta ( talk) 18:46, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
