- Delete. Citation record not strong enough to convince me of a pass of WP:PROF#C1 (see e.g. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Silvina Montrul, another linguist who coincidentally happens to be up for AfD at the same time, for an example of what I'd consider to be strong enough). And there seems to be nothing else. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:48, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
- Keep as the author of a major books. Endangered languages of Austronesia was published by Oxford University Press, and is in 375 libraries [1]. I consider that publication by itself a probably enough to establish her as an authority in her field. DGG ( talk ) 17:08, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

- Weak keep Kind of a borderline case. Current article seems promotional, CV-ish. But this person does do interesting work in an interesting part of the world. Possible source is an article about a linguistic study here and related articles here about the 'yeah-no' phrase, also here. A positive book review here, and an interview with her here and a mention here, and a mention here. Overall, I lean towards keep although I would like to see several in-depth sources addressing Florey's impact, and I urge whoever wrote this article to trim out all the unsourced or improperly sourced gunk.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 15:15, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- Keep perhaps weakly, but I feel that two signficant reviews [2], [3], in the International Journal of the Sociology of Language and Anthropological Lingustics, are notable, and if you want a policy argument, can be viewed as meeting the clause of WP:AUTHOR 3 which requires "of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.". --j⚛e deckertalk 05:19, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
