She doesn't appear to meet WP:AUTHOR or WP:GNG, or have a good WP:ATD. Has been in CAT:NN for 14 years; hopefully we can now resolve it. Boleyn (talk) 16:41, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

• Comment I think she is probably notable but the article is unsourced and there is no clear indication of signifance. But anybody who writes and translates essays, plays, literature and poetry and has a series of published poetry books is generally notable. These types of folk are generally notable. They are academics but not always. This individual is a school teacher. It needs a real expert to work on the article, who understands the language. scope_creep^Talk 14:23, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
• Comment The press section of her personal website is not looking very promising. Seems mostly to be Facebook posts, personal emails, and blog posts. Jfire (talk) 19:59, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
• Comment. I looked for reviews of her novel in Greek and French and only found database entries and sales websites. Normally having a novel translated into a foreign language is a good indicator of notability, but the BNF does not record a translator in the cat entry ([1]), so I think she may have translated it herself. scope_creep has the right idea but I think we might be stuck with this one. Haven't tried the poetry books. -- asilvering (talk) 00:53, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

• Delete: No book reviews in French, I don't see much of anything we'd use for sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 21:39, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
• Delete. Seems to be an old SPA-created vanity or fanpage. 128.252.172.14 (talk) 22:03, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
