Deletion of Tova Hartman

Comment: Although non-notability has not been asserted as a basis for this AfD, as an FYI the following sources are sufficient to meet the central notability criterion of : http://www.thejewishweek.com/top/editcolcontent.php3, http://www.jewishjournal.com/home/preview.php?id=9858, http://chronicle.com/weekly/v49/i20/20a01601.htm, http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA286541.html?pubdate=3%2F24%2F2003&display=archive, http://muse.jhu.edu/login?uri=/journals/common_knowledge/v011/11.1fox-genovese.html. In addition, the fact that Professor Hartman's works have been published by the Harvard University Press (e.g. http://www.hup.harvard.edu/books/religion.html), Duke University's Common Knowledge (e.g. http://commonknowledge.dukejournals.org/content/vol11/issue1/), the APA (e.g. http://www.apa.org/books/4316071t.html), etc., is also an indication that her academic work has been peer-reviewed and is notable independently of her work as founder of Shira Hadasha and as a popular writer and lecturer, as is the fact that Stanford University uses one of her books as a text. http://www.stanford.edu/group/religiouslife/docs/courses/course_femst139.pdf.

Comment: On http://www.thegreatlecturelibrary.com/index.php?select=speaker&data=124 this site and in the article there is nothing that shows she is more than a lecturer with degrees and strong opinions. No news articles or books with her as the subject...misses the  criteria about multiple non-trivial reliabile independant publications about her

Comment: Nominator has failed to state an actual criterion for nomination. Nom has alleged , but has not claimed any conflict of interest that's actually found in the  policy. No relationship to any relevant organization or other similar actual conflict of interest has been alleged, nor could one be as there is none. An editor's subject-matter interests and personal points of view simply are not violations of the |COI policy and there is simply no problem with having an article on a topic an editor happens to be interested in as long as the usual inclusion criteria are met. The nominator needs to assert an actual policy basis for deletion to have a legitimate AfD and avoid a speedy keep
