Not notable. Article almost falls over itself attempting to assert notability but, no, no sign she's more notable than the average professor ( WP:PROF). kingboyk 01:02, 25 April 2007 (UTC) reply

commentBecause, I edit this article extensively I am recusing myself from voting. In response to comment. I want the article to meet notability requirements so edit it to show what requirements are met. Her nomination for awards and and coverage in national media make her more than average professor. She is roughly as well known as danah boyd. How can I or others improve the article. Typewriter 01:10, 25 April 2007 (UTC) reply
comment also just added reference to ibiblio speaker series she was asked to lecture in. Other lecturers in the series include danah boyd, cory doctorow, jimmy wales, and Bob Sutor.
Delete, she is just a college professor with a blog. There are too many other similar people for her to get an article. Black Harry 02:30, 25 April 2007 (UTC) reply
Keep, Intellagirl is a cutting edge blogger who combines Real Life with Second Life. Her work and writing is moving educators past Web 2.0 into Web 3.0, in ways that Wikipedia opened up 2.0. To strengthen the article, it needs more images, an indepth teaching philosophy, and a closer look at the ways that she "breaks out of Real World learning".

Keep, Intellagirl is absolutely a pioneer in the field of distance education, where linear, text-based courses remain the norm. Sarah Robbins and the merest handful of others pushed back the boundaries of technology in education to investigate early on what might be done in Second Life and, by extension, in similar environments. Her blog shares her research activities with the education community.

Keep, This article is way too long. Needs editing to the essential bits. See a sampling of other Second Life and M.U.V.E. notables who may or may not have a page:

Because we are NOT voting, I started this new section to conduct a reasoned discussion as opposed to rough binary responses. I have shredded this article - thrown cold water on the "promotional" aspects and distilled it to the most useful (and verified) portions.
The information here is useful to me personally as I watch this EdTech research community mature. Robbins is a notable personality in the study of this new media. Granted, this is a case of boosterism bordering on a vanity piece - but the timbre of debate is fueled by community bias. If Robbins were comparably notable in Wikimedia circles, there would be no debate. Period.
Please leave this article be - it is useful. I have given enough to this community to assert this. See my winning Wikispecies logo entry and 2 "photos of the day" [1] [2]). jk 19:00, 27 April 2007 (UTC) reply
