Talk:Anwen Keeling

Notability
While this article certainly does not have an NPOV, an "award-winning" artist with international exhibitions would qualify as notable. I plan to clean up the article and tag it stub. chrylis (talk) 01:49, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

When an article is created, and it has no citation, no NPOV, and the author has an interest in the content, and nothing was created except content promoting the "artist", then it usually gets deleted. About half of that usually gets it deleted. Wikipedia isn't Myspace, it is an encyclopedia. P HARMBOY ( TALK ) 01:52, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not saying the article needs to stay; I'm saying that, considering that the author isn't brand new and has posted useful edits, such as copyediting, I'm assuming good faith. Unless I missed a piece of information, I didn't see the COI, and the subject appears at least marginally notable. chrylis (talk) 02:02, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry if I came across strong. I am not assuming bad faith, I am mainly concerned that the person really isn't notable,  and no real claim of notability is made, no citation, etc.   Wikipedia is chock full of nonnotables in articles, this appears to be just one more.  My rationale is based solely on the content of the article, not the motives of the author.  Based on that, the article is a general praising of the artist, with no real substance or references.  If the author is experienced and has made good contributions in the past, I would have to think that this article is the best they could find on the person, which would reinforce the whole nonnotable claim.  But hey, I'm just another editor.  P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 02:09, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * That's why I was going to mark it just PROD if nothing else showed up. I kinda doubt that the subject is notable, but there's enough possibility that I wanted to let the article survive speedy. chrylis (talk) 02:17, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I don't know the artist nor any of the artist's representatives. I only became aware of the artist's body of work through a May Australian Vogue article on p. 102 about this Australian artist's growing body of work. I don't own any of the artist's works, and I would gain no personal or financial advantage from the artist being promoted. I live in the US and have never visited the Australian galleries nor met any of the parties involved. I am an art historian and commentator, and I do from time to time add content to Wikipedia on art related articles.

I created the article because the artist's existing body of work and biography have encyclopedic value. I'd ask anyone considering deleting this article to review the artist's body of work, awards, and exhibitions, easily visible in the citations in the article. While the awards are not listed in this Wikipedia article, they can be easily viewed at the cited links. Thx. I'm no Wikipedia expert. I'm just trying to be contributive.Onemoreoption (talk) 02:23, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * That was something like what I suspected. An article about a person should explain why this person is notable.  In the case of Ms. Keeling, I looked over her CV, but I have no idea what out of it qualifies her as "notable" (e.g., what awards are considered prestigious).  She appears to the casual observer to be notable at the "Who's Who" level, which is a little bit less than what we need for Wikipedia.  Please tell us non-art-experts what she's done that makes her notable (and wiki links are always helpful!). chrylis (talk) 02:34, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * A side note: When a new article is created, it will get reviewed by someone on the New Pages Patrol, so expect that pretty quickly, someone who's a complete newbie in your field will see the article. Even if the article's short (or a stub!), tell us why the subject of the article is worth reading about.  We're not trying to pick on you in particular, just trying to get all new articles off to a running start.  chrylis (talk) 02:36, 27 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I've removed the speedy tag. This artist does appear to be the subject of coverage in multiple third-party sources. For example, there is this: "Solo artist's fine photo art wins hearts", The Gold Coast Bulletin, 2005-06-08, p. 25. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:56, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
