David "D.K." Row
as a columnist, he has to have had regualr media exposure, so I guess he doesn't quaslify for a speedy delete under WP:CSD A7 (nn-bio). But the article indicatesd nothing notable about him except that he is an art critic for a major paper. This is not enough for an article on wikipedai, IMO. Delete unless greater evidence of notability is presented. DES (talk) 18:10, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

 * (Weak) Keep. Because nominator noted that D.K Row is "an art critic for a major paper."  Sounds notable to me, I suppose it all depends on how important you think art critics are . . . . I vote "weak keep" because the article should include more information about this guy.  Be careful not to confuse him with notable New York artist David Row.

 * Delete as per DES. -- Kjkolb 05:09, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. You can't get greater evidence than "Art critic for The Oregonian Oregon's largest newspaper." However you feel about art critics if he's got a column in a major paper, people will want to know about him. - Mgm|(talk) 10:04, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep according to current policy. ··gracefool |&#9786; 07:40, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect to the main article. --TimPope 18:02, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep and expand, he's the main art critic for the only state newspaper of a state that's as big as the whole NE corridor, need more about him though. KunstNow 16:03, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
