Promotional article about a person who does not meet WP:GNG, created by a promotional sockpuppet. Exemplo347 (talk) 23:12, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment, having a look at Sockpuppet investigations/Robinbirk, this article was not "created by a promotional sockpuppet" but appears to have been created as part of an editathon. Coolabahapple (talk) 01:24, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete no where near meeting the requirements for biographies of living people. Beyond that, a mention in an article on six recognized people in a local paper is not really enough to add towards GNG, and even if it was, GNG requires "multiple" sources, which means more than 1, and probably at least 3. Articles on living people need to meet GNG with the sources there, not just existing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:26, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

 * KEEP She does have more articles written about her. I think the article should be improved with citations and when that is done, we will see that the article meets the criteria.--Sue Maberry (talk) 16:23, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. The only mentions of her in the news/books/web are routine promotional mentions in the course of performing her various jobs: "Anne Dugan, director of the ....". These sources talk about the galleries, not Anne Dugan. The article is also unfortunately written like a job resume to be handed out at the mall. I removed the long uncited "selected exhibitions section". 104.163.152.90 (talk) 01:53, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete I concur with 104.163.152.90. Being mentioned as part of an article about something other than the person does not make one notable. Is she visible in the press? Yes. Does the press focus on her? No. Getting recognition from a relatively small town newspaper doesn't cut it either. There's just not enough to go on here, and a cursory review of news outlets does not show any promise of there being coverage available that can be tapped. WP:GNG isn't satisfied here. She might be notable by our standards some day, but not now. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:42, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
