Fails WP:BIO notability guideline, she is the editor of a non-major work (and even if it were a major work it would still be questionable) Pilotbob 17:05, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep. At the moment, Warriors' Amazon sales rank for YA SF is up around His Dark Materials, so the author is most probably notable enough. She's not just the editor -- she creates the plotlines that the other two authors proceed to fill in, and she maintains continuity of the series -- http://writerunboxed.com/2006/04/21/author-interview-erin-hunter/. Needs to be greatly expanded past the info on the website, though.--SarekOfVulcan 17:23, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep despite what she calls the "unconventional way of working" if the three coauthors have in fact produced a best seller, than all 3 of them are probably notable. In her case, she's done 3 other books, according to OCLC, [1] held in many libraries. That's enough. But there is some precedent for merging coauthors together into a single article.
