 * Weak delete - I skimmed the interview, and am not sure if it is a reliable source. Not much else there.  She likes Utilikilts.  That's it. Bearian (talk) 18:27, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Question: What interview are you referring to?  It's not a source in the article. -- Whpq (talk) 17:26, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know. There was an interview in the external links. Is it gone? Bearian (talk) 01:24, 17 March 2011 (UTC).
 * I looked at the article and some source, and now I can't find it. Perhaps it was a dream .... LOL.  It doesn't change my !vote. Bearian (talk) 01:28, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - This book review isn't much to establish notability, especially when correlated with the words by Emerson Probst who pushes out stuff for the book's publisher. There is a &pub=The+Sun&desc=5+THINGS+I+HAVE+TO+HAVE+NOW&pqatl=google 172 word article] behind a pay wall. But that is all I could find. -- Whpq (talk) 17:26, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete - no independent reliable sources with significant coverage to indicate notability. Yaksar (let's chat) 04:21, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Linda made numerous appearances on Baltimore, Maryland's WJZ-TV, starting in 2005, in interviews with Marty Bass and Don Scott's 'Coffee With' talk show that apparently span several commercial breaks. They refer to her in superlatives that I take with a pinch of salt, but I feel sure that with that much smoke there has to be some fire somewhere. I could not find the other clips, but her previous appearances are alluded to by Don Scott in her Dec. 1, 2010 appearance on the show. It is shown in full at the Wednesday, Dec. 1, 2010 page on CBS Baltimore: CBS Local Events: CBS Local Pages. That is by far the highest quality source in the article, but it establishes notability, and nearly every sentence is cited now.
 * Linda is very active in the her particular subgenre of the fantasy art community, and has been called on to present the subject by the Glen Rock, Pennsylvania Fairie Festival (2010 Fairie Chautauqua Presenters Spoutwood Farm: Fairie Festival). Anarchangel (talk) 01:16, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fails WP:ARTIST. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 05:52, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * In my opinion, she passes #1 "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors." for the regard in which she is held by those who work with her, including those mentioned above, and the writer of the foreword to one of the book her art appears in (The Art of Faery), who is one of the conceptual artists who worked as a consultant on the Dark Crystal and Labyrinth (film), namely Brian Froud. Arguably she passes #2 as well, for her Lowbrow (art movement) underground comix-inspired renditions of fairies. #2 "The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique."
