There is no coverage in reliable sources of the subject. The subject fails the notability test. She appears to have been on the staff of a failed presidential campaign, written op-eds in conservative outlets, and self-published a book.

• Delete All I can find are reviews of "Chinese Girl in the Ghetto", the book she wrote and even these are few and far between. Oaktree b (talk) 01:31, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep She has been published in several non-conservative outlets as well, particularly on foreign policy matters, e.g. NBC News and WSJ. She makes relatively frequent appearances on cable news, and was frequently quoted during the No on 16 campaign in California last year, and as such will be someone people will want to look up. WP is about the only place where she is described as a "writer" which likely explains absence her from searches; "Ying Ma activist" and "Ying Ma author" are more productive.-- choster (talk) 14:32, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

She has written op-eds for NBC News and the WSJ. NBC News and WSJ have not covered her.

As far as I can tell, the content you added was near-exclusively sourced to self-authored bios and to other self-sourced work (such as op-eds). If you weren't a regular editor, I would have strongly suspected your edit of being

• Delete. Not seeing significant, in-depth coverage independent of the subject. She may later become notable as a pundit, but not there yet. Neutrality^talk 16:23, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Even with the new sources (one is her "About Me" part from the website and the other just a bio from her employer), I don't see notability. They don't discuss her at length in any third-party journals, newspapers or books. Oaktree b (talk) 14:49, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete only primary or useless secondary sources.
