My search for sources showed up listings of a book by her, mainly in later editions with a co-author, but nothing saying anything substantial about her. This article has existed with no sources for over 12 years. I was able to find this [1] that says she was an associate professor of English at Western Illinois University, but it is not a reliable source. Everything I can find is just incidental mentions of her in relation to the book. We have an article on the book, so a redirect might be worthwhile, but at least at present even the book does not seem to have sources at a level to show that it is notable.

    • The article actually dates back to 2006, and has as far as I can tell never had sources, it seems before 2009 people just did not place no sources tags very much.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:10, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - via the Wikipedia Library, it looks like she has some
    WP:AUTHOR
    notability based on the critical reception of more than one book:
1) The Least You Should Know about English
  • Guinn, D. M. (1978). "Review of The Least You Should Know about English; Writing from the inside out; The Authentic Writer, by T. F. Glazier, R. L. Optner, J. M. Mellard, & J. C. Wilcox". College Composition and Communication, 29(1), 70–74. https://doi.org/10.2307/356264 (via JSTOR)
  • "The Least You Should Know About English, Form C: Writing Skills, 11th Edition", ProtoView 2015 (via Gale)
  • "The least you should know about English; form b; writing skills, 11th ed", Reference & Research Book News, 2012, (via Gale)
  • "The least you should know about English; writing skills; form A, 10th ed", Reference & Research Book News, 2008, (via Gale)
  • "The least you should know about English; writing skills; form B, 9th ed", Reference & Research Book News, 2006, (via Gale)
  • "The least you should know about English; writing skills; form A, 9th ed", Reference & Research Book News, 2005, (via Gale)
  • discussed in "And They Wrote Happily Ever After: The Nature of Basic Writing as Portrayed in Textbooks", Composition Chronicle: Newsletter for Writing Teachers, 1996, full text available via ERIC
2) The least you should know about vocabulary building; word roots
  • "The least you should know about vocabulary building; word roots, 6th ed", Reference & Research Book News, 2007, (via Gale)
  • cited in "THE ROLE OF FRENCH LOANWORDS IN ENGLISH VOCABULARY INSTRUCTION", Fu Jen Studies: Literature & Linguistics, July 2016 (via Gale)
  • "The least you should know about vocabulary building; word roots, 5th ed." Reference and Research Book News 2004 (via ProQuest)

Also, a program she developed "to improve student self-image and reduce anxiety" is mentioned in context in Reigstad, T. J. (1985). PERSPECTIVES ON ANXIETY AND THE BASIC WRITER: RESEARCH, EVALUATION, INSTRUCTION. Journal of Basic Writing, 4(1), 68–77. (via JSTOR), at p. 71. And while this does not help support notability, there is some biographical information available on the Midland University website. There are also indications she has other works, e.g. via VIAF. However, most of the reviews are "capsules" from the same source, so while there is some support for notability, I think more is needed to get beyond Weak Delete Redirect.
