I took the liberty of looking at the article that was declined. It doesn't look good. It is what they call a stub. Not much to it I am afraid, but it can be dressed up some. I am suggesting a redo and am posting it below. If you like it you can look at it via the edit function and copy and paste it as a replacementOldperson (talk) 23:34, 25 October 2019 (UTC) ---

Nancy Manes Plum (1932-2019) was an American potter and ceramicist

Early life
Born and raised in Providence, RI, Plum attended Antioch College from 1950-54 and was introduced to ceramics by Peter Voulkos, Warren MacKenzie and Daniel Rhodes at  Black Mountain College in the summer of 1953. Until 1956, Plum studied ceramics at Cranbrook Academy of Art with Marguerite Wildenhain and Takakazu Takeuchi. In 1957, she studied pottery at Mills College, CA, where she earned an MA on a teaching fellowship with Antonio Prieto as her mentor. The same year, she was awarded Fulbright fellowship which she declined and instead joined the faculty at the New Mexico Highlands University to teach ceramics and weaving.

Professional Career
In 1960, Plum went back to Michigan to join her husband, the painter Jens Plum, Professor of Art at Michigan State University. Nancy Plum taught at pottery guilds, first in Ann Arbor and then in Lansing, Michigan from the 1960s through 2018 ''(here is were you cite references, which are needed, use the cite icon at the top of the page when in Visual source edit see my example in the next section, I used the cite button.)

Artistic Career
Plums’s ceramics are part of permanent collections at the Detroit Institute of Arts, Mills College Gallery, The Witte Museum, and the St. Paul Gallery. Plum had both one-person as well as Regional and National Exhibitions.

Her work is reviewed in the Bulletin of the Detroit Institute of Arts, Vol. 36, no. 3 (1956-57), pp. 75-76.
