been covered/interviewed in /multiple secondary reliable sources/.

Awesome! Nice article. I think she is OK on the notability front.
Anyone who manages to accumulate more than 4 million *science*
followers on facebook without posting regularly on sexual subjects is
definitely noteworthy enough for Wikipedia. Add to that this strange
development on the swear-word gender miscommunication and you pass on
the basis of "most bizarre gendergap content to be published in 2013".

Hi Sarah,
I am following this discussion and it's interesting to see that
deciding
about an entry is not straight-forward even to
"core insiders".
I wonder
what criteria help decide if something or someone
is "worth" an
article
in WP. How do you decide? Or: What makes it worth
it or nor?
