@Wtshymanski: I disagree with the notability tag. Toolis is notable for contributions to the SF field. Co-founder of notable organization (SF Canada); editor of a story collection that won a notable award (Aurora Award for Best Related Work); recognized by induction into the Canadian Science Fiction & Fantasy Association Hall of Fame; has an entry in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction; Locus, a notable SF publication, wrote an obituary on her death. See this AfD for a similar article. Schazjmd (talk) 23:34, 11 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Wtshymanski: She won a national award in her field, co-founded a national organization, and was inducted into her field's Hall of Fame. Plenty of news coverage. Easily passes WP:GNG. Penny Richards (talk) 03:11, 12 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
