The result was delete‎. The policy based arguments here indicate a consensus that notability of this figure is not established. There are not exceptions in our notability policies for people who may become notable in the future Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 17:32, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This article fails notability guidelines as per WP:CREATIVE and was published by another editor after failed attempts by the subject to create a promotional autobiography. Redtree21 (talk) 03:54, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I really would not be surprised if they become notable in the future, but I can't see evidence they're notable at the moment. Thryduulf (talk) 13:39, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Thanks to the editors for marking the article for deletion, a quite reasonable suggestion as the previous version was agreed to be deleted. I advocate for "keep" on the grounds of notability; by all means an adult writer with this limited output would fail a notability test, but a writer this young is more notable when assessed against their peers.Nankai (talk) 06:21, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- further, I mean more like ^steadily increasing notability, especially compared to at the time of the previous version Nankai (talk) 06:23, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I agree with Nankai. Being a published author at that age is itself notable, I would say. Grutness...wha? 09:02, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Grutness, at WHAT age? The article doesn't state how old they are or their birth year. There are very few details here. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:25, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
12 years, 9 months, and 14 days, as it clearly said in the references (and as has now been added to the article). Writing and publishing a 60,000-word book at that age seems pretty notable to me. Grutness...wha? 05:44, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I thought I looked at all of the references and didn't see any age mentioned. Thanks for the information. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:48, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Clearly fails WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 10:37, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete. Found no reviews of the books in reliable sources. @User:Nankai: Please provide evidence of this steadily increasing notability. --Ouro (blah blah) 10:22, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: First source is a book of records, and provides no notability. 2nd is their publisher page and 3rd is an interview, both of which are not independent. Last one is just a listing on Audible, with no text prose. GNews search turns up nothing. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 13:56, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
