 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Largely unsourced article with numerous COI edits by a family member. An online BEFORE search reveals nothing except places to buy his prints, but no SIGCOV in reliable, independent published sources. The subject does not meet WP:GNG nor WP:NARTIST. Netherzone (talk) 22:45, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - I am not finding RS for this artist. I am only finding the local obituary. Fails WP:NARTIST, not in notable collection or exhibitions The article reads like an obituary and I am do not see a way to improve it. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 18:16, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. Verification tag unhandled for more than a decade, too. And orphaned apart from a pair of lists. Suitskvarts (talk) 13:47, 27 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Soft Delete, but, for the record, Maglinger's art work was the subject of a solo exhibition at the Evansville Museum ... discussed in the Evansville Courier & Press, 2005. This story notes that his "paintings are in private and public collections throughout the region." One of his paintings also illustrated the cover of a local history book about the city of Evansville. Deleting would mean that the solo show in the Evansville Museum is NOT per WP:ARTIST 4. "(b) ... a substantial part of a significant exhibition, ..." and that its holdings are not "(d) ... several notable galleries or museums." -- Jaireeodell (talk) 00:08, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
