This article is about a newspaper columnist that has no significant coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. As a columnist, google news turns up articles by her but not much about her. [http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-national/paper-defends-publishing-schools-data-20100129-n3gb.html], [http://www.smh.com.au/news/opinion/muslim-rage-burns-in-our-backyard/2005/07/20/1121539032464.html], and [http://www.greenleft.org.au/node/17028] are some passing mentions. That article claims she has written several education books. A google [http://www.google.com/search?q=Maralyn+Parker&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=d5X&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&tbs=bks%3A1&q=inauthor%3A%22Maralyn+Parker%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=ac3b1f8641813cbe book search] confirms this but I can find no critical coverage or indication that these books have attracted notice. She also claims a couple of rewards related education related journalism. However, I find no coverage to indicate these are significant awards. Whpq (talk) 16:40, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Delete No indication that Parker meets notability criteria for inclusion; no significant coverage in independent sources and the awards do not appear to be significant enough to cement notability. --Jezebel'sPonyoshhh 16:57, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
