Delete While I think this nomination was made entirely too quickly, in the end, I agree that the subject does not appear to meet the criteria for inclusion. The dead link (to Amazon.com) was simply a matter of a misformatted link, and was easily corrected in order to ascertain the ISBN for the book and use that instead of the Amazon link. As it turns out, the book, a local history of Arlington, Texas, was published by the Arlington Women's Club -- not known as a powerhouse in the notable book publishing industry. The award which the book won is a local county-wide history award; again, hardly notable on a global scale. Carter's career as a local journalist and historian does not rise to the level of notability required for inclusion at Wikipedia. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 19:05, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete a book winning a county-level history preservation award is not a sign of notability. For that matter nothing else here is a sign of notability either.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:06, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No evidence of any notability. Article has been written simply as a class project. Looks like a misuse of Wikipedia and could be a speedy as a person with no evidence of significance. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 15:32, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
