Fails WP:BIO and WP:AUTHOR. I could not find any indepth coverage of her, passing mentions only. Even her own website does not specify what actual awards she has won LibStar (talk) 17:32, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Probably enough to keep the article.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:58, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep I do find evidence of the award and of the short-listed book. The review in The Australian is significant. This is sufficient for notability. The article could use some work. LaMona (talk) 18:21, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Keep. Plenty coverage about her and her books. (On the nominators comment on what award. [http://www.hanifadeen.com/Book_Caravanserai.htm] Her website says she won "New South Wales Literary Award 1996, Ethnic Affairs Commission") duffbeerforme (talk) 10:52, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
