I'm not convinced that this author meets the requirements of Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline or Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Creative professionals. I'm not seeing evidence of significant coverage independent of the subject or significant critical attention. Judging from "The series is written by a number of authors under the pseudonym Rosie Banks", it could be a hoax. DrKay (talk) 11:52, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe you could add the people who use the psuedonym if it is used by different people. --SoothingRelaxation (talk) 11:57, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@DrKay: the creator has just admitted it is a lockdown timekill on the article talk page. I suggest not worth your time or mine or anyone elses. Let's just move it to Secret Princesses then blank and redirect to Hachette. That will prevent any recreate attempts by other Secret Princesses fans.

@In ictu oculi: No, I didn't admit to anything. I agreed that you are wasting your time. --SoothingRelaxation (talk) 12:12, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay well that's rather foolish. Particularly if you'd have searched Rosie Banks on Wikipedia you'd have discovered that Linda Chapman was already listed as one of the Hachette series authors. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:16, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
