Finding no evidence at all that would lead me to believe this person meets Wikipedia's criteria on notability. Her book (which has a separate article, also up for deletion for not being individually notable) may or may not qualify, but notability for having a Wikipedia article does not transfer from a book to its author or vice versa (so if anyone argues here that the book is notable, that's not applicable here). Google news search on her name shows only six articles ever mentioning that name: 3 in clear relation to the book and the incident the book covers (which has its own Wikipedia article), 3 strictly gossip oriented (accused by another of being drunk, having a catfight -- apparently the same incident). A regular Google search finds nothing of any value either really: a mere 1,800 hits with the name in quotes, with the sites in question being ones that fail Wikipedia's criteria as reliable sources and the name being mentioned in trivial circumstances or clearly about the incident that already has an article. As a point of comparison, I picked someone I know who self-published a book and has a unique name so that there wouldn't be false positives, and it returns 6,000 hits with the name in quotes. If this person is honestly notable separate from the book/incident in question, I would love for someone to actually put reliable sources in the article documenting it. If it turns out the book is notable, then this should redirect to it, or vice versa. DreamGuy ( talk) 18:49, 31 December 2008 (UTC) reply
