Non notable but moving. Fails WP:BIO and WP:SIGCOV. scope_creep^Talk 21:53, 16 December 2018 (UTC) scope_creep^Talk 21:53, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment As a writer, she would need to meet WP:AUTHOR, so we need evidence of whether #1 she is regarded as an important figure, or #3 has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of ... multiple independent periodical articles or reviews; or #4 her work has won significant critical attention. The article does not include any reviews, but I have found some eg [1], [2], [3], and there may well be more WP:NEXIST. Looking at the edit history, it appears that this article was created as part of a course. I would suggest that tags for improved referencing could have been added as WP:ATD.
Comment I dont like getting rid of a poets, particularly since they are considered to be the very best that humanaties got, but there is very little coverage, i.e. no coverage, meaning no secondary references. scope_creep^Talk 23:22, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Find some references. scope_creep^Talk 12:47, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I am the instructor of the course for which this page was created. Will deletion move the page to a draft so we can continue adding references?Timothy.robbins (talk) 14:56, 17 December 2018 (UTC)--Timothy.robbins (talk) 14:56, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Timothy.robbins No, it is deleted. The sources need to be of a much higher quality, as it is a BLP article and it needs to satisfy WP:BIO. The refs to the subjects own site, to prove notiblity are unacceptable. I have added a couple including one from PBS which is of a high quality. I've take out some of the worst ones that dont satisfy WP policy. Please add more. With the Huff and PBS article ref, I now think she is probably notable. scope_creep^Talk 16:44, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If the result of an AfD is to delete, then the article is not accessible to ordinary editors, though any who have worked on it can see its history through their User contributions. Another option for voters is Draftify, which would move the article back to draft space and allow more work on it. (I see it's actually called Incubation - see WP:ATD-I.) So far, no one has voted Delete on this AfD, though - we are trying to identify the relevant criteria and suggest ways of meeting them, or include sources to do so, as the editor who nominated the article for deletion has actually done.

Keep With the addition of the Huffington Post and PBS sources, the subject passes WP:GNG. Curiocurio (talk) 20:45, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, hi Timothy.robbins, i see that her book Floating, Brilliant, Gone is held by around 100 libraries, this may be because it is available as an ebook but there also could be a number of reviews of it out there in literaryland, as long as they're from reliable sources the student can and them and they will contribute to Choi's notablitiy.
