Fails in WP:BASIC, haven't received significant coverage in multiple published secondary reliable sources, all references are primary or self published (LinkedIn etc.) CommanderWaterford (talk) 08:02, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Hello CommanderWaterford, I can understand your arguments. At the same time, Melanie Maecker-Tursun has, in my opinion, made a very significant contribution to Wikimedia Commons. She has provided more than 50 professional graphics on the topic of renewable energy. For a freelance graphic designer, that is extraordinary. The German Wikimedia has pointed out this achievement several times in their newsletters (see quote). Many greetings --Molgreen (talk) 16:42, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , well this is honourable but definitely does not guarantee for the required notability. We have Editors here with hundreds thousands of Edits and many hours of contributing to Wikipedia who also are lacking of notability ;-) CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:45, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , I understand and hope that the article gets a chance. . . --Molgreen (talk) 17:58, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete this is an extremely clear notability fail that probably should have been speedy deleted. I could not find any independent news coverage. The claims to notability in the article are pretty much non-existent, and it reads more like a CV. While she is to be congratulated for her uploads, contributing to Wikimedia projects does not earn notability points unless people write about you in independent media, in depth. Example, example, example. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 00:29, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per deleters - not close at all to notability. Johnbod (talk) 01:36, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
 * No suggestion that she has done anything notable. Rathfelder (talk) 07:08, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete There is some precedent that making illustrations freely available on Commons gets enough attention in the media to warrant an article, but this is not such a case. Making used(?) contributions to Commons alone does not make one notable. We need coverage in independent reliable sources. And, not that it would make any difference, but I don't even see that these illustrations are in use. Vexations (talk) 18:23, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Not seeing any third party media covering the subject. Not in Google first 3 pages, not in Google News. — Infogapp1 (talk) 22:59, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
