- Comment Illustrators and other commercial artists are really hard, because convention is not to use their clients. The question for me on this one, and more generally, is what does raise them up a level to satisfy the requirements here? Specifically, does the Benjamin Franklin Award Finalist constitute the kind of marker we are looking for? --Theredproject (talk) 18:26, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- Winning a notable award confers notability on the subject (because very likely someone will write something that we can use as a source), but a nomination for a non-notable award almost certainly doesn't. Are the IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award™ notable? Barely. Are previous winners notable? I don't know. They have 54 categories, and each category has three winners, one gold and two silver. I don't recognize any of the authors, but that doesn't mean anything. Note that this award is more of a competition; submitting your independently published book costs $95, so my take on it is that winning such an award isn't even all that exceptional. Not winning? No, that doesn't make you notable. --Vexations (talk) 22:06, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

- delete article created in 2009 by WP:BLP1E and I do not know whether it is the same family, Catherine and Snodgrass are very common names. As for notability as an author for this Catherine Snodgrass, One of the books was sponsored by the Autism foundation, and, as editors above have pointed out, others were self-published. the "Benjamin Franklin Award" is mere PROMO for commercial outfits that print self-published books. There is no notability here .E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:01, 16 September 2018 (UTC)]
- Delete I don't see sufficient coverage for GNG or awards that would meet ANYBIO; the two children's books (of no particular prominence) aren't enough to meet π, ν) 21:05, 17 September 2018 (UTC)]
