Not enough in-depth coverage to pass WP:GNG, and doesn't meet WP:NSCHOLAR. Onel5969 TT me 23:46, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I am the annoying one who deprodded this. Giving an overview of WP:PROF criteria I found that: She has an h-score somewhere betweeen 5 and 8 as google scholar and scopus give different results. Upwards of 300+ citations, and at least 12 publications. One publication has 132 citations, and another has 43 and she was not first author on it. Most publications with high citations are older. So while she has not published a lot, it does seem like what she does public is rather noteworthy. It also doesn't appear to be a top journal either. I am not familiar with the averages in library science, and I wasn't able to find it. I am inclined to say no it doesn't meet C1, but if this proves to be near averages I may change my assessment. As for all the other criteria, she seems to fails C2-C8 as I was not able to find evidence of her meeting any of those. I could not find any major new articles, secondary sources, or similar on her which leads me to believe she fails WP:BIO as well, and does not pass WP:AUTHOR if that were a possible consideration. --Tautomers(T C) 01:10, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Hello. Is it possible to change this decision? This librarian is a very important woman to the international library community, regardless of the traditional publishing circuit. The concept of notability should not be tied to the article indexing ranking when, ultimately, she is a person with various academic publications.
    Having her biography allows many people to know the impact of women librarians of the 21st century. I also believe that the fact that her article in the Spanish edition of wikipedia remains alive, shows the relevance of her existence. Thanks in advance!
