Campbell was in the Olympic Arts competition. Being in such a competition is not a default sign of notability, the sourcing is just a database not significant coverage, so there is no way to justify keeping this article. John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:25, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep You did a WP:BEFORE right, Lambert? Clicking on the one source in the article prior to your nom would have shown a mini-bio detailing his work across Ireland, including stating that his work was used in stained glass windows across churches in Ireland. (Does that count as "articles on religion or religious figures, broadly construed"...?) Five seconds of searching found bios such as this and this, along with details of his work being sold here and here.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 19:50, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - The coverage in reliable/independent/biographical sources, including the entry in the Dictionary of Irish Biography, would seem to support a WP:GNG claim. Guliolopez (talk) 20:15, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep meets WP:GNG. Thanks to Lugnuts for expanding the article. Jevansen (talk) 05:22, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep meets WP:ANYBIO, the fact that he's featured in the Dictionary of Irish Biography means that he was important in his time, and thus more offline sources probably do exist to complement the current online sources listed here. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:21, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
