Deletion of Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman

Comment: The evidence on twitter at https://twitter.com/123_christina/status/1268930659151642634 is that this page was NOT written by the subject, but by an unrelated person.  Yes, the subject is young, has no PhD, and does not meet the notability critera of .  HOWEVER, she is notable under the  criteria.  I am a professional (PhD, published) economist who has never met her, but I have been hearing a great deal from very distinguished economists about her efforts to improve opportunities for young Black women in our field.  She has been interviewed by the St. Louis Fed as part of their series on Women in Economics here https://www.stlouisfed.org/timely-topics/women-in-economics/opoku-agyeman-and-traore If you look at the rest of that series (https://www.stlouisfed.org/timely-topics/women-in-economics), most of the people they have interviewed are clearly notable in the Wikipedia sense.  By Wikipedia:Interviews#Notability, selection for this very substantial interview by this independent source contributes substantially to establishing notability.  If she were only famous for her work creating The Sadie Collective, the  critera might apply to this subject. However, now the subject has also received a great deal of media attention for organizing Black Birder's Week, such as https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/03/us/black-birders-week-black-in-stem-christian-cooper-scn-trnd/index.html. Thus, I believe  no longer applies and she is notable under

Comment: Meets . The subject has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of her. The https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/30/opinion/economics-black-women.html op-ed she wrote for the New York Times was followed up with some good sources such as https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2020/01/09/economists-are-discussing-their-lack-of-diversity The Economist but especially https://www.npr.org/transcripts/789555694 this NPR interview and the https://www.chronicle.com/article/It-Was-a-Mistake-for-Me-to/247446 Chronicle of Higher Education.

Comment: I think the main thing that needs to be addressed in this AFD in regards to notability is whether the subject is notable beyond the recent spate of news regarding Black Birders Week. Since that alone would just be a |single event type of notability that is not long-lasting. So while we have plenty of articles with a lot of detail and interviews with the subject over the past week, such as https://www.theverge.com/21279801/viral-video-christian-cooper-black-birders-week-protests this article in ''The Verge'', what I decided to search and focus on was prior to that. And I found plenty, primarily due to their work in founding the Sadie Collective. Here's some examples

Comment: Nominator created this AFD in their very first edit, and has since been blocked for sock puppetry. There is no reason for the AFD nominated in the nomination. Shortly afterwards they nominated two other articles  for black women. The nomination appears to be in bad faith, and a deliberate act of .

Comment: Agree with {{u|EAWH}}. Subject’s work, thought leadership, and impact are confirmed by multiple independent and credible secondary sources that meet Wikipedia’s criteria for such sources. In context, subject’s tweets are as easily read as self-deprecating and humorous. The potential for a page on Wikipedia to boost one’s professional credibility and opportunities is well-understood. To {{u|Bender235}}'s reference to , note that it states, "Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." Subject cannot held responsible by association for the actions of individuals associated with the subject. Black Birders Week, as noted in the https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/03/us/black-birders-week-black-in-stem-christian-cooper-scn-trnd/index.html cited CNN coverage, is a timely and comprehensively organized and programmed “series of events and activities designed to highlight Black scientists, scholars and everyday nature lovers. While spreading their joy and knowledge, the countless people involved in the movement are also raising visibility of Black achievement at a painfully critical time.”  To the allegation of meatpuppetry, I'm a longtime if infrequent Wikipedia editor
