all of the sources are either primary, TikTok, press releases, and blogs. The few sources left I am not sure if they are reliable. There is no substantial coverage from reliable sources about this topic. Interestingly, there is more coverage about a different Katherine Reilly who died on 4 Feb 2023 FuzzyMagma (talk) 13:15, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

the issue is not about the amount of coverage another person of the same name has. In this case most of the sources are in Greek by legitimate universities and news sources. As a speaker of Greek I can attest to that. After checking the links as regards bibliography, academic career and activism, all check out fine. Besides, she is a public figure in Greece with an International following. Wikiben37 (talk) 16:26, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I can't find book reviews for this individual, only links to download the various books. None of the links used appear green per sourcebot, rest are social media and non-RS. Oaktree b (talk) 16:35, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In her interviews found in the links, she has stated that due to her being trans, the publishers concealed her true name to promote sales. Fortunately, she has posted certificates of proof of authoring on her sight, given to her by the publishers thmeselves. https://katherinereilly.blog/authoring/ Wikiben37 (talk) 16:44, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This was a huge vistory for the lgbtqi community as she stood up for what was right and received the certifications of authoring. She even speaks about it in the interview links added. Wikiben37 (talk) 17:06, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. She appears to be a prolific children's book author but for WP:AUTHOR we need published book reviews, not just published books. Nothing else in the article stands out as something that would automatically meet our notability standards. If the many low-quality sources listed include some that have in-depth content about Reilly, are independent of her, and reliably published (as would be needed for GNG), it is not clear to me which ones those might be. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:08, 16 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can be blocked indefinitely for threatening editors, so zipped it please FuzzyMagma (talk) 13:00, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
More specifically, even vague and laughable threats of invoking "international law" are legal threats, are forbidden on Wikipedia, and are likely to subject those making such threats to an instant block unless the threat is withdrawn and repudiated. User:Wikiben37, this means you need to withdraw the threat or you are likely to be blocked. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:54, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Until August 7 when they requested its deletion, Wikiben37 had a user page declaring a COI with the subject of this AfD. However, since the deletion of this user page, Wikiben37 has been participating here without declaring a conflict of interest, in apparent violation of Wikipedia's terms of use. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:03, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@David Eppstein True. Furthermore, the user who created the article has without doubt WP:COI with the subject; cf. their global edits, esp. at Commons. ǁǁǁ ǁ Chalk19 (talk) 20:23, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
