Alexis Umowski
Orphan article about a living person. Sources merely confirm that she won a scholarship from the Hellenic Times Foundation. If there isn't anything else verifable to write about her, I suggest that we delete the article. --Tony Sidaway 12:35, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * "the first American female practitioner of the previously male-dominated profession of Byzantine Iconography, in the United States" - Ok, great, but who cares? Did it make the news? At the very most this would justify a line in Byzantine Iconography. ---J.S  (T/C/WRE) 14:13, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * delete absent a demonstration of the importance of the awards she has received. There are a lot of prizes given out by various groups.  Few are of the level of the Heisman trophy or Nobel Prizes.  Those may be the high-water marks, but if the award receives a fraction of a percent of them, it may not be notable.  FrozenPurpleCube 16:09, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Visual arts-related deletions.   -- John Vandenberg 01:21, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. I note that Eternal Portraits, to which she has conrbuted, is a publication of the International Library of Poetry, a vanity press. Victoriagirl 20:41, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
