::I'd agree with that assessment. I originally put up the notability tag, because if every Digital Media consultant or "Future Thinker" had a page, Wikipedia would have forty thousand resumes. Just graduating Ivy League and starting a business does not rate an article. Likewise, not every author should have a page; there are millions of authors with out-of-print books who don't get a page. If this book has legs after two years, I'd say keep. --[[User:Bridgecross|Bridgecross]] ([[User talk:Bridgecross|talk]]) 16:01, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Notability

I'd been poised to delete this as failing WP:GNG, but Webb has put out a book that seems to just push her past notability guidelines. I'd debated making an article for the book and redirecting there, but the coverage is fairly light so far and this would be best served as a section in this article. If the book gains more publicity with Valentine's Day coming up, we can create a separate article or debate redirecting Webb's article there.Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 10:42, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
