Promo BLP, lacks proper sourcing, no SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth from I RS. Article creator also uploaded "Headshot of The Artist Daniel Logan (DALO)" to commons for article.  // Timothy :: talk  07:43, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Citation sources for article have been updated to fall within the Wikipedia guidelines. The two qualifying sources featuring the artist have been updated for proper citation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArtSounds (talk • contribs) 10:38, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello, it would help if you would explain how you know the subject of the article. Also, could you clarify if you took the photo in the article yourself or did you receive permission from the subject to use the photo. Thanks,  // Timothy :: talk  10:47, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete as NN. I do not see why we are here, when this is a candidate for Speedy Deletion. NN and looks like advertisement, and maybe COI? -- Alexf(talk) 11:12, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Alexf: I see you are a longtime wiki admin. Can you explain COI and NN? Also Im afraid to create any wiki pages for artists and waste my time. Do state and local newspapers and magazines qualify as notable sources? I have Colorado and European newspaper publications for other artists. I’ve asked some classical musicians to send me pictures and news articles for wiki. Are those typically allowed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArtSounds (talk • contribs) 12:14, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * TimothyBlue: I know the owners of the ColoradoSprings venue that supports and features new artists and wrote about Mr.Logan. They said he was also just featured in a local magazine for artists as well. I asked his wife (who attended the show) to send me his headshot.

I have some other Colorado Springs artists and musicians to post on Wikipedia as well and their publications are from Denver and local newspapers but am now unsure if I can use this for new Wikipedia articles. Please advise!

Ive posted other artists (particularly musicians) under other wikinames before with similar sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArtSounds (talk • contribs) 11:57, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I think you should consider submitting new articles at WP:AFC for review until you gain experience. They will be very helpful if you ask them questions about sources. There is also Reliable sources/Noticeboard where you can post sources and ask questions regarding notability. You can also request help/advice anytime at WP:TEAHOUSE.

 * Ah! I thought having permission to use the picture counted for that. Ok! No worries, I’ll learn with your suggestions! Greetings from Germany! Thank you for your help :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArtSounds (talk • contribs) 13:13, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable artist. "Air Force" refers to the US Air Force apparently, though the article appears to be too-USA focused to make that clear. I don't find sourcing beyond alumni newspapers. Oaktree b (talk) 14:10, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: Non-notable artist and is written as a promo. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:18, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * As a Denver based contributor, I can perhaps provide you with an easy criterium for notability for artists in the region - Does the Denver Art Museum hold at least one of their pieces? If not, then they are most likely to end up here, in the Articles For Deletion. MNewnham (talk) 01:28, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
