[edit] Notability of Subject

Elaine Coffman is indeed a notable person, per my search findings. Not only has she been in The New York Times and USA Today, but she has indeed published many books (see info here), all of which were published through notable publishing houses. She's even a New York Times Bestselling author.[1].

So where does that leave us? Well, the article is badly in need of a good clean-up and restructuring, as well as a plethora of citations and references, not to mention the author herself has edited the page and admitted it (see here). Thus, we need to clean this puppy up, remove any WP:COI and make it comply with WP:NPOV, do some more research and cite sources. But as it stands, Elaine is notable per WP:BIO, hence my removal of the tag. Rockstar915 05:38, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

From Elaine Coffman... I did not originate this page. I have no idea who started it. I was notified by a reader that I had a page on Wikipedia. I popped over and made a few corrections/additions, which obviously did not meet with the approval of the person who wrote the proceeding paragraph. If you are not pleased with what is here, please delete the page. I am not trying to garner praise or free publicity. I simply do not know how to delete this page.
