Hello Yelodoggie, I'm Lexein, I very briefly chatted with you on IRC.
 * 1) If you are C. Arial Wulff, it would be fantastic if you read WP:COI, especially the part about WP:COI - there are benefits to doing so.
 * 2) I have requested that the article be WP:Userfied, and it was done so at User:Lexein/C. Ariel Wulff. It can continue to be developed (mainly, improvements like more sources, and more reliable sources (avoiding wikis, forums, blogs with few exceptions) over time, without further threat of deletion.
 * 3) Although the article did not have enough reliable sources over time to meet WP:Notability requirement, it may yet, but more research is needed, and more time. This requires patience and persistence. I do not think the article is ready for the public.
 * 4) However, as I said in IRC, your status as a contributor on various projects may very well merit inclusion in Wikipedia articles about those projects/publications, if your work on each was discussed in WP:Reliable sources such as reviews, retrospectives, shows, magazines, notable newsletters, books, etc. Being mentioned by name is best, but if
 * you were the only inker/letterer on a work, and the publisher lists you as the sole such,
 * a review discusses the inking/lettering,
 * The combination of those two makes your mention, and what the reviewer said, verifiable enough for inclusion.

Homework for the week: Read WP:References for beginners, WP:Reliable sources, WP:Verifiability, WP:BLPN - biographies of living persons, and their notability requirements. If you ever forget what we're about, just read WP:42 again. Cheers! --Lexein (talk) 07:57, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
