Overall, good job! There are a few corrections to make on your page. It would look better if you had chronological order wherever you have a list and if it's still current, make sure you state that. I noticed there are a few spots it says "2008 - ". On the positions held, you have "2005 - Madison", not sure what this means?

Deletion

Hi Suziemarin, in order to keep the page from getting deleted you need to find sourcing that is independent of Zeske herself, such as reviews of her works in academic journals or books. I also want to note that I removed the list of classes that she taught and the list of students that she oversaw - neither of these are really things that we put in a biography article since they're seen as too WP:INDISCRIMINATE for Wikipedia's purposes. The list of university services could probably fall under this criteria as well and at the very least I'd recommend summarizing this in a short paragraph about what type of work she does. Going into detail like this can also be seen as a bit too indiscriminate for Wikipedia, since it's generally assumed that most professors will be active with the student body to some degree and with the especially active ones this list can be pretty long. Most of these aren't considered major enough for Wikipedia's guidelines.

You may also want to trim her works to just a selection of content, at least with the articles she's written. Most professionals tend to put out a large body of work, especially if they're prominent in their field due to the "publish or perish" principle. For the most part Wikipedia doesn't keep a full list of articles and workshops that a person writes or is active in because the list could potentially contain hundreds of articles. I'm predominantly looking at the works in progress section. This part is less of a priority than the stuff in the prior paragraph - especially the sourcing. If the sourcing isn't provided then the article will be deleted. I'd recommend looking at your school's academic databases like JSTOR to see what they pull up review-wise under her name.
