It appears the WP:NOTABILITY standard is met for this person. While researching the complete rewrite of this previously-deleted article, I found a book mention and media coverage dating back to the 1990s, which are used as references in the new article. There has also been recent news coverage of this person in 2018 as a result of the FIRE movement causing renewed interest in Your Money or Your Life. That alone should allow for reconsideration of the "not notable" disposition previously rendered in 2016. FishTheFish (talk) 12:11, 3 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Basic criteria. The following articles represent significant coverage of Vicki Robin in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.
This person also appears to satisfy additional criteria in WP:AUTHOR:
3. "The person [...] played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work [...]. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject [...] of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews."
For the 1st sentence, Vicki Robin is the co-author of the book Your Money or Your Life which is a best-seller in its genre (i.e. the work is well-known). Furthermore with the advent of the FIRE movement the book has been cited as inspiration by many of its proponents, indicating significance.
"Many FIRE boosters cite a more recent work: the 1992 book “Your Money or Your Life” by Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez. This paean to financial independence and anti-consumerism, a business best seller in the ‘90s, found a new audience after the 2008 financial crisis."
"One of the bibles of the FIRE movement, “Your Money or Your Life,” which teaches readers to reduce their spending and value time (or “life energy”) over material gain, was published in 1992."
"The FIRE tsunami originated with the classic, "Your Money or Your Life," by Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez."
"Inspired in part by the personal finance bible, "Your Money or Your Life" by Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez, these folks are pinching their pennies in their twenties and thirties in order to build up big nest eggs."
Multiple independent periodical articles or reviews where Your Money or Your Life is a primary subject:
