the article itself shows no evidence of any notability. While there was a previous afd, no notability has been established within the article. Most of the "evidence" is claims of notability like "notable convert", or "important convert," but no notability has been established or shown within the article itself.

*'''Delete''' She's written books, but that doesn't mean she's a notable author. Also, a very important thing to take note ofis that the article is not about her biography as an author, it's about her conversion to Islam. The article presents itself in such a way as to suggest that she is notable as a convert to Islam (as written in the first sentence), and that her books are simply a detail ofher conversion. I say that unless it can be substantiated that she's a notable author the article should be deleted, but if it's kept then it would need serious cleanup/rewording so as to focus on her career rather than her conversion.[[User:Calgary|Calgary]] 06:52, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

== WikiProject Power in international relations?==
The current International Power-related articles fit the criteria to be formed into a WikiProject. As we have so many articles to keep a track on and so many discussions relate to all of the articles as opposed to simply one of these articles, I think it would be alright to create such a project...what are your views? Please express your views before and if you believe this is alright then put your name into the Approving User list directly below: I'll be able to organize most of the project but may ask for a bit of help.

'''Discussion'''
:I think a Wiki project is a great idea. There are a lot of articles and we do cover a lot of content that is controversial which makes it the more important to have a project with a designated discussion page. I am already part of the Auto Wiki Project and it has greatly helped to improve the quality of articles, settle disputes between editors and adopt new policies. <b><font face="Arial" color="1F860E">[[User:gerdbrendel|Signature]]</font><font color="20038A"><sup>[[User:gerdbrendel|brendel]]</sup></font></b> 05:19, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
:Excellent idea, well done for coming up with it. Turning it into a WikiProject might also help in getting some more editors on board, hopefully filling up some of these sourcing holes.

:Good idea, but we'll have to monitor that we're not turning into some sort of exclusive club, discouraging new editors to take part [[User:Trip the Light Fantastic|Trip: The Light Fantastic]] 22:41, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
:Forgot to put my own name in...WikiProjects can actually help get more people editing, there are often some random signed in users that put in a couple of edits to these pages, if they join the project they can be allowed to express their opinion. For example, if you're not from a Commonwealth Nation you probably wouldn't have even heard much about [[cricket]], but yesterday WikiProject Cricket got its 100th participant.

:Hi, I'm just wandering by and thought I'd probe a little more into the ambit of this proposal. After skimming [[power in international relations]], it appears that a Power in IR WP would be framed to appeal to users with a [[Realism (international relations)|realist]] perspective. This is not necessarily a bad thing but, given the lack of a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject International relations|WikiProject International relations]] as a upper level coordinating forum, it may be worth giving thought at some point to the scope of the project and how it might interact with country and regional notice boards, [[Wikipedia:WikiProject International development|WikiProject International development]], etc. Or I may simply not be on everyone else's wavelength. - [[User talk:BanyanTree|BT]] 15:30, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
::It's a fair idea BanyanTree...I'm going to be opening discussions on the title of the project and its scope after we get a decent number of approving users. This is part of WikiProject Politics, but that particular project seems dead...so a fresh project is required.

:::I think WikiProject Politics was just a little too <i>unspecfic</i> to have any real impact. There is simply too much to cover and it'd be best off split into Wikiproject French Politics and similar subdivisions. I mean, come on, it's like having Wikiproject Science or something crazy like that! [[User:Trip the Light Fantastic|Trip: The Light Fantastic]] 23:51, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
::::Yes, there is WikiProject Politics of India but it deals more with things like Politicians and Elections as opposed to International Relations. Thus the need for a new project.

:OK, why not. It would be good to try and discuss all the articles in perspectives (with balance) and can encourage new editors with new sources. Should be "interesting". :P -[[User:Heilme|Heilme]] 09:42, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

===Step 2: Scope and Name===
Since we ''almost'' have enough users and many people will probably join once I begin advertising. You can still put your name up their of course, but you can't vote here until your name is up there. I'll move on to the next step: Propose a name for the project, the name should be representative of the scope you have in mind. For example, WikiProject Power in international relations would probably refer to few more than the articles in the {{tl|International power}} template at the bottom of each of these pages...

:''Propose a new name by using <nowiki> '''my name''' </nowiki>. If you support an already proposed name, list it under that particular name using the following <nowiki> '''Support''' COMMENTS # ~~~ </nowiki>. We'll keep it open until all that have put their names down have voted...in the event of the tie, cut out any outliers and get the people that voted for that to vote for something else...I wish we had 7 participants so there couldn't be a tie in the end, but if that happens then I'll think about it''.
