The result of the debate was No consensus, several of the votes offered rewrite as an options which was done, so along with the 2 keep votes makes this stuck in the middle. I'd suggest keeping an eye on this though. Rx StrangeLove 05:51, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Mary Early
Created by. I userfied it, but it was re-created in article namespace. This reads like a CV and not an encyclopedic article. -- Curps 04:57, 3 October 2005 (UTC) I am happy to rewrite the entry per suggestions; I created the entry because it came to my attention that my name was included in the text of the Bennington College entry, and studied the other artist, literature links and it seemed appropriate.
 * Delete, vanity. --Angr/undefined 05:22, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Rewrite or Userfy. Google  turns up 440 hits including the Washington Post.    Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk   05:25, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup, as per User:Dlyons493. Jkelly 07:09, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, by all means. The Google link above includes hits on "talking to Mary early this morning" or even "Jacques Stella, Ascension of the Virgin Mary, early 17th century", completely unrelated to that person. The WP mention is one list of art exhibits in Washington, DC, and a fleeting mention in an article on someone else (one Riccardo Maranzana). Falls below by threshold of what is encyclopedic; I class this as vanity/advertisement. Lupo 12:23, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. Sufficiently notable to be regularly mentioned in news articles about gallery exhibitions, which seems to me to be analogous enough to imdb standard to justify inclusion. Monicasdude 14:45, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Rewrite If someone else wants to write it, then that's fine, she's got a good shot at notability. Right now though, it just looks like Mary cut and pasted her resume and decided that Wikipedia would be a good promotional device, which is the prototypical vanity article.
