Not a single one of her books are in more than 8 libraries according to worldcat, but notable children';s book of the present century would have at the very least several hundred. There are no reliable 3rd party reviews given.

This was accepted from AfC, which I find incredible. DGG ( talk ) 21:00, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I believe this author is notable as her works have deemed a Top Seller by Disney D23. Although this author may not be notable to the overall community, in the Disney community she is known.FirstDrop87 (talk) 03:34, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That's what Wikia is for. I see no evidence she passes wp:AUTHOR or that it's even close. Delete Neonchameleon (talk) 18:43, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - a Disney author considered a Disney top seller by the Disney fan club. Stalwart111 02:22, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No Delete - From what I know of this author, she is equally as notable within the Disney community as the author Ridley Pearson doing similar disney works. As an atendee at many Disney events, I can verify she was guest speaker at many of these events. In addition I know she was Top Seller at 2011 and 2013 Disney D23 and 2011 and 2013 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. I agree this author may not be as notable within the overall community, but to the Disney community she is well known and should remain in wiki. Her titles are in paperback and ebook, which explains her books not being in very many libraries, they rarely buy and stock paperback. The article does not appear to violate any of the Reasons for deletion in the Wiki Deletion policy, and should remain intact. Boatguy1 (talk) 01:26, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. Taking out the MANY primary, tertiary, duplicate, passing mention and broken references, we're left with a few news articles. Not even close enough to meet WP:AUTHOR. Gm545 (talk) 12:36, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable author as far as I can tell, per WP:NBOOK. -- GreenC 21:22, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
