Cannot find any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources, either those in the article or elsewhere online - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR. No reviews found either. Edwardx (talk) 19:13, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the one source includes this person in a list of writers who are said to be in the bibliography of another writer. That mention is not enough to show any meeting of any notability standard.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:16, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I mean, I found confirmation of a book she wrote in the African Ephemera Collection at the University of Indiana [1], so I assume there is more about her, somewhere. I can't find much of anything online, GNews has a hit on her name about the Queen's Birthday celebration. To be noticed and held in the collection of an American university would suggest notability on some level... Can anyone find sources? Oaktree b (talk) 19:54, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Found her in a bibliography of Ghanaian popular lit, and in Worldcat - copies held in a few places around world. Also longer form of her name. PamD 08:19, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Reluctantly, can't really justify a keep: Seems only to have written the one book, about which we can find that it exists. I wanted to suggest redirecting her to something, but Ghanaian literature doesn't exist (unlike the others at Literature by country), and she can't be included in List of Ghanaian writers or List of Ghanaian women writers unless she has an article. I've found Berrian's bibliography online at the Intenet Archive (ISBN 0894102265), and it only lists the one novel, and doesn't include any annotations or further info. Sad, but.
