- Comment - It didn't say much else, but you didn't give me much of a chance to work on it. I have expanded it, and will try to look for more sources. BOZ (talk) 02:38, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Preliminary merge to Grey Ghost Press--her notability appears to be mostly linked to that company, and I can't find anything to support her independent notability so far. Jclemens (talk) 03:50, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge both to Fudge (role-playing game system), which is the only article with substantial information. Borock (talk) 09:39, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as award-nomination and regarded as an important figure or widely cited by peers or successors (WP:AUTHOR). -- JHunterJ (talk) 20:17, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per JHunterJ - thanks for finding another source. BOZ (talk) 21:44, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Fudge (role-playing game system). The only independent source cited is a blog, which in general are not considered reliable sources, thus insufficient to establish notability.--70.80.234.196 (talk) 23:31, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not a personal blog. It's a professional blog by a peer organization, which works per WP:ACADEMIC and WP:AUTHOR. Also, the Origins award nomination source is a reliable source, even though it's not independent, per WP:RS#Self-published and questionable sources as sources on themselves. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:58, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - this is still being constructed, so I would like the rescuers a few more days to find better sources. Bearian (talk) 19:07, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Unstated in my last comment is my thought that it should be merged if the sourcing not improved. Bearian (talk) 20:49, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
