This subject fails WP:GNG because she enjoys in-depth coverage mainly by primary sources (the UN -- I also found university coverage of her as its associate but did not add it). In-depth coverage by multiple reliable sources appears not to exist. Separately, she remains far from passing special criteria at WP:ACADEMIC or WP:POLITICIAN as well.

• Keep Pretty sure her position would meet the requirements of WP:POLITICIAN, but regardless, there's been coverage of her since the appointment of both her and her activities (and North Korea being angry at her findings from her work). For example:

• Peruvian legal expert set to be new UN rapporteur on North Korean human rights - NK News
• North Korea COVID rules put pressure on women providing food - U.N. expert - Reuters
• UN Highlights Abuses Against Women and Girls in North Korea - Human Rights Watch
• UN special rapporteur Elizabeth Salmón laments lack of information from North Korea - Korea JoongAng Daily
• New UN special rapporteur makes first visit to Seoul - Korea JoongAng Daily
• North Korea: UN human rights expert is 'US puppet' - Agence France-Presse
• UN special rapporteur for N. Korea human rights to visit S. Korea this month - The Korea Times
• UN Special Rapporteur Focuses on Women’s Rights in First Report to UN Human Rights Council - Korea Institute for International Economic Policy

I think there's enough here to meet the WP:GNG. Silverseren^C 23:18, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. I've reviewed the list and ported it to the article as Further Reading, with hopes it might underpin biographical content in the future. I appreciate your research. Cheers. JFHJr (㊟) 00:54, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators, Politicians, Women, Law, and Peru. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 00:02, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
• Keep: The UN special rapporteur post seems to satisfay WP:ACADEMIC #7: having an impact outside academia in her academic capacity, in this case being appointed by the UN as a legal expert on human rights. PamD 07:38, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
• Keep: I disagree that she meets NPOL, but being a UN rapporteur and having regular media coverage meets NACADEMIC #7. voorts (talk/contributions) 15:26, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
• Keep: Likely passes GNG with the JoonAng and other newspaper articles listed above. I'm unsure about satisfying academic notability, but there is ample coverage in RS for general notability. Oaktree b (talk) 13:34, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
• Comment: Has anyone searched in Spanish for Spanish sources. They wouldnt come up if looking in English. MaskedSinger (talk) 07:46, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

• I have not. I would expect searching in Korean and whatever the Hangul transliteration of her name is would also be fruitful. Silverseren^C 20:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
