Hi “MurielMary”
I’m at a loss to understand why you have rejected Amy Scholder’s page on the grounds that she does not meet the notability standard.
I followed the guidelines on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people) carefully and included a range of independent sources as references. Please also note that I have been editing Wiki pages since 2009 so I am familiar with the requirements.
I believe Scholder meets the basic Notability requirement (“presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.”) on this criterion alone. The basic Notability requirement is of course qualified by “If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability” and I believe that is the case here.
Scholder falls under the secondary criteria for “Creatives” (Editor is specifically listed here). She certainly meets the first criterion (“regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors”) and this is demonstrated by the references:
E.g. “Scholder began her career in publishing in 1985, working part time at the City Lights bookstore in San Francisco. During subsequent stints at Serpent’s Tail, Verso, and the Feminist Press of City University of New York, she’s published work by a veritable roll call of cultural icons, from Pussy Riot to Joni Mitchell, Kathy Acker to Diamanda Galas, William S. Burroughs to Sapphire, David Wojnarowicz to Savannah Knoop. In 2016 she added ‘documentary producer’ to her resume with the multi-award winning Disclosure, and continues to work on film projects, as well as books. She’s clearly done so much more than subtly polish existing writing — she’s been a major influence on transgressive literature in the USA.” https://litreactor.com/interviews/standing-on-the-threshold-an-interview-with-editor-amy-scholder
E.g. “Host David Colosi sits down with Amy Scholder to discuss her three decade history in the field of publishing, her iconic series High Risk, as well as her most recent project, Icon, an anthology of essays on public figures written by some of the industry's most provocative writers, edited by Scholder and released by The Feminist Press. Amy Scholder has been editing and publishing progressive and literary books for over twenty-five years. She has published the work of Sapphire, Karen Finley, June Jordan, Kate Bornstein, Kathy Acker, David Wojnarowicz, Dorothy Allison, Mary Gaitskill, Joni Mitchell, Justin Vivian Bond, and Paul B. Preciado, and many other award-winning authors.”
https://clocktower.org/show/amy-scholder-high-risk
e.g. “I entered the bustling office and asked after Elizabeth Koke and Amy Scholder, who created, compiled, and edited Pussy Riot! A Punk Prayer for Freedom, a collection of letters, songs, poems, courtroom statements, and tributes by Yoko Ono, Johanna Fateman, Karen Finley, Justin Vivian Bond, Eileen Myles, and JD Samson. A portion of the proceeds from this e-book will go towards the Pussy Riot legal defense team. Amy Scholder, who was appointed Editorial Director of the social justice-inclined publishing house in 2008, sought out a room with a door for us to sit down and talk.”
https://brooklynrail.org/2012/11/books/elizabeth-koke-and-amy-scholder-of-the-feminist-press-with-gabriel-don
Moreover, if you enter the search term “Amy Scholder” into Wikipedia itself, you’ll see she is already referenced by 19 other pages: she is regarded as “an important figure” by all the individuals creating these entries about their respective subjects.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=%22Amy+scholder%22&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1
Scholder more than meets the third criterion (“The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series);).
To illustrate this, and to make it easier for a non-specialist in American literature to understand, I have added a select bibliography to the article and also here.

You seem to dismiss Scholder’s role as producer as “a film she worked on with others”. I believe this demonstrates your fundamental misunderstanding of the role and importance of a documentary producer. Specifically referencing “Disclosure”, ​​the end credit is "A film by Sam Feder and Amy Scholder," demonstrating a central, driving role in creating this award-winning work. I am hoping that a quick Google, which brings up articles such as those following, will enlighten you on the primacy of Scholder’s work as a producer:

Hi @Kazrene, could you resubmit this actually, and send me a note that you've done so? I'll accept it. I didn't look at the "Standing on the Threshold" article closely because it's subtitled "an interview" - but it's actually a feature. That's the "something about her, specifically" I was looking for.
