- Weak delete per WP:TOOSOON and WP:BIO1E. Her book Hop Hop Desis has received a reasonable number of reliably published academic reviews [1] [2] [3] [4]. One more like that and I would probably change my opinion, but I think just one notable book and no other evidence of notability is not enough, and the reviews don't help support the actual content of the article. I'm also not particularly swayed by the minor awards and accolades listed in the article; none rises to the level of WP:PROF#C2. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:54, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Only achievment appears to be one well-received book. WP:Too soon now but that may change. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:38, 18 April 2017 (UTC).

- Also enough mentions in Google books to indicate that her research has had an impact on the cultural studies in general: link. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:19, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
- delete as WP:TOOSOON, does not pass WP:PROF. Given time, impact will very likely make her WP:NOTABLE. But sources are just not there yet.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:52, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
