WP:GNG on reliable source coverage and analysis about them and their work in third-party media -- but this is referenced entirely to sources directly affiliated with the claims, such as the promotional pages of the subject's books on the self-published websites of their own publishers, with not even one hit of proper GNG-building media coverage shown at all.
There is a literary award in the mix here which would be a valid notability claim if the article were properly sourced, but as a specialty award it still isn't "inherently" notable enough to confer an instant inclusion freebie in the absence of any GNG-worthy sourcing.

- Comment - This article is listed for consideration under "deletion sorting visual artists". Perhaps a poet could take a look. Should we remove the unreferenced stuff and duplicate sentences and see what is left? --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:44, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - Article relies on primary sources, specifically the publisher promotional website. Several dead links. WP:TOOSOON. The claim that Spero was involved in the editing of "We Both Laughed in Pleasure: The Selected Diaries of Lou Sullivan" is not supported by the references. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:21, 27 May 2024 (UTC)]
