Characterized online as a "fanfiction author", she does not meet our notability guidelines for biographies or WP:AUTHOR. I have not been able to find any independent reliable sources indicating notability. Shawn in Montreal ( talk) 21:08, 20 July 2012 (UTC) reply
Not to mention the fact that her website is reporting over 300 copies "sold" through the Kindle Lending Program's free book promotion. Surely that has to be worth something. Jamie's FanGirl ( talk) 05:52, 21 July 2012 (UTC) (Edited by Jamie's FanGirl on July 21, 2012 at 10:52p EDT) reply
I would like to say that the comment that "this is not a ballot" evokes the statement, "Oh, wonderful. Then the WikiElitists will turn this whole thing in their favor, delete the article and it will be all over." But that would be sour grapes. Instead, I think I shall use the opportunity to ask you to enlighten me.
If this is not a ballot and not a popularity contest (despite Shawn's comment that the big issue is a lack of notoriety on Ms. Ryelle's part), then why, therefore, is there a link to a website that provides a vote count? Surely a vote count doesn't mean anything if the moderators in charge of pages being deleted are taking everyone's arguments "in good faith"? (Am I missing something here?) Jamiesfangirl ( talk)
