Notable?[edit]

I'm sure she's lovely and one of the leaders in her field but how is she any more notable than any other lecturer at a top university? 91.104.70.134 (talk) 20:57, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Purkiss meets WP:GNG, in addition to meeting point 9 of WP:ACADEMIC. See [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7] as a start, probably a lot more (some of her books would meet WP:NBOOK and could be standalone articles:)). I will be incorporating these references into the article. These could be used for background info/research/fleshing out the article(?) - [8], [9], [10], [11]
