[edit] Elizabeth Austin

No real evidence of notability is given and it reads like a resume. (This is my first delete nomination, please advise me if I've not followed the right process, thank you.) Roaming27 08:19, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

• Keep The article is miscategorized in "Category:Women writers" as she seems to have no notable books under her name. But she seems to belong in "Category:Journalists" which covers "writers of articles in periodicals". Published articles in Newsweek and Time (magazine) seem to make her quite successful in her profession. User:Dimadick
• Keep. She did win a US National Mental Health Association award for an article she wrote on mental illness. Is that enough of an award to qualify under WP:BIO? She also co-wrote at least two popular books on economics, one of which was reviewed in Forbes magazine (not online as far as I can find it). --Charlene 09:17, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Her books are not listed or even mentioned in the article. Maybe you could add them and thus justify her categorization as a writer? User:Dimadick
• Keep, meets WP:BIO criteria. A writer for several magazines and books are notable. She looks to be notable in her field. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 14:19, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Award winning writer for numerous national publications and commentator on National Public Radio, author of several books on negotiating strategies for women, and on religion and medical issues. Meets WP:N and WP:BIO. Edison 14:24, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment I did some revisions to decrease the mention of religion. Edison 05:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, but someone should look at the "heresy" paragraph. Lankiveil 01:16, 11 November 2006 (UTC).
