It appears that this page has been subject to repeated defacement and malicious edits by parties who have clearly demonstrated their conflict-of-interest. Most recently, citations of this subject's work in international publications have been repeatedly removed with an explanation that vaguely references "notability" guidelines. This, despite the fact that the Wikipedia notability guidelines clearly state that, "Notability is a property of a subject and not of a Wikipedia article. If the subject has not been covered outside of Wikipedia, no amount of improvements to the Wikipedia content will suddenly make the subject notable. Conversely, if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability." These articles are (a) germane to the professional work of the subject and (2) appeared both in print and online under her name and byline.

At this point, even a casual glance at this subject's edit history makes it clear that almost any new content being added by contributors is likely to be attacked and subject to defacement, often by the same parties. Said users also appear to have edited the discussion of their conflict of interest that appeared on their own talk pages.
