Notability concerns[edit]

I'm not seeing signs that she meets WP:ACADEMIC; the sources given here are an aside mention, and an odd textbook usage with no obvious claim of import then that she went into AI. A prod was deleted with the statement that she is cited somewhere as having coined a term, which is a good reason for mentioning her on the term's page. GScholar finds only a dozen cites of her work; I don't have access to the paid citation databases. The article itself has no real claim of notability. --Nat Gertler (talk) 21:19, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Montalvo is known for having coined the term "AI Complete", for which she is acknowledged as a contributor in the "Hacker's Dictionary." Also she is on the governing board of ISIR. (Someone should add these facts to the article.) 64.134.236.140 (talk) 20:40, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If thats the case, then that's important enough imho but the article doesn't mention that or detail the legitimate citation. ayman (talk) 18:30, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Is it important enough? A passing mention in the Hacker's Dictionary, and one of 28 board members of an organization that has held one symposium, doesn't appear to have a website, and doesn't have a page in Wikipedia? --Nat Gertler (talk) 19:42, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The Hacker's Dictionary has a policy of not directly crediting sources. So the reference provided is the best that they can do in crediting Montalvo with originating "AI Complete." Being a founding member of the board of iRobust is very prestigious and difficult to attain. Also, she authored an article in the refereed proceedings of IR'11. Unfortunately, Wikipedia is falling behind in keeping with new developments, so it is not surprising that there is as yet no Wikipedia page for iRobust.
