Doesn't appear to meet WP:BIO, I may very well be wrong, and would appreciate other eyes on this, but the sources listed seem to not qualify as "intellectually independent" of the source. Joe Decker 14:50, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete If she ever completes "working on a multi-media experiment designed to test the viability of evolutionary guidance media", and if the result should happen to be notable, then there will be a reason for an article. She's 4 years after a non-research clinical Ph.D, received from "a San Francisco, California based 'distance learning' institution" and has written only one scientific article; she apparently holds no academic position of any sort. There are zero independent references--the book by Laszlo is background, published about when she received her BA degree from "a mid sized, state supported collegiate institution located in Russellville, Arkansas." We would not accept this sort of a beginning academic career for any psychologist even with degrees from major universities. As a comparison, I don't think we would accept a fiction writer with one short story and plans for a novel. DGG 06:04, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per DGG. This is remarkably thin on actual accomplishments, relying much on referencing other people's work as a kind of reflected/inherited achievement. Pig^man 18:30, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per criteria for any academic. I have no doubts re: the altered states of conciousness thing though, and ethnobotany. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Killing sparrows (talk • contribs) 01:15, 8 April 2007 (UTC).
