Delete - this person has a decent publication history, but with small publishers/magazines that anybody could get published by. She does not qualify as a notable academic. Nothing wrong with that, but there are probably a thousand other yoga instructors who are just as noteable. The principal author of the page is Wolfeppt. - Richard Cavell (talk) 10:41, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Further checking shows that at least some of these publishers are print-on-demand publishing houses having author fees to publish, i.e. vanity presses, (see e.g. the "publish your book now" button on the Equilibrium Books website, which "published" her book 'Off The Wall- Exercise for Climbers'). Bordering on advertising, the article also lists individual appearances at non-notable events, offers a lengthy list of unverified interviews in obscure specialty magazines (e.g. typing "wolfe" in the "Hour Detroit" magazine search box returned no hits on the subject). The article tries very hard to manufacture a notability where, unfortunately, none exists.Agricola44 (talk) 20:02, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I did try to establish whether those publishers were vanity presses. Thanks for finding the appropriate info, Agricola. Given that they're vanity presses, those publications do not count toward notability at all. - Richard Cavell (talk) 06:42, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
