This has the appearance of a vanity page, and in any case the subject does not meet WP:BIO or any other notability guideline that might apply. Coccyx Bloccyx (talk) 17:36, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep significant coverage of the artist and her work. Result of a 2 second google search. That says, it's in dire need of clean-up but the appearance of a vanity page is not reason for deletion TravellingCarithe Busy Bee 21:21, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. This is not a vanity article, although a clean-up and better sourcing are certainly needed here. A fairly unusual career and I think notability can be established both per WP:BIO and probably WP:PROF as a notable artist/designer and engineer. TheGoogleNews results cited by the Busy Bee are quite impressive already: 157 hits, most with nontrivial coverage related to her   . GoogleScholar also returns a substantial number of hits as does GoogleBooks, which yields 132 hits. Several of them give detailed biographical coverage, such as this, and this  , and where many more provide nontrivial coverage of her.  Salon.com had an in-depth feature article about her . Other examples of in-depth coverage include a review in New York Times  . More than enough here to satisfy WP:BIO.  Suggest the nomination be withdrawn. Nsk92 (talk) 23:42, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong keep per above. I have to say, I don't understand this AfD: she's shown at MASSMoCA, the Whitney Museum, Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt; she's a Rockefeller Fellow (among other achievements). This satisfies notability as an artist and an academic.  freshacconci  speak to me  00:10, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I'd also like to point out that "Vanity is a potentially defamatory term that should be avoided in deletion discussions" (from WP:GTD). I've done this in the past myself and it's worth mentioning now.  freshacconci  speak to me  00:22, 20 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep The article needs some work, - a reference section, some clarity, otherwise it's fine...Modernist (talk) 04:32, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep notable as an artist by our normal standard. the article certainly does need a sharp trimming though. DGG (talk) 04:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep Some impressive exhibit involvement is mentioned. Those venues don't accept just anyone off the street. (Roodhouse1 (talk) 05:00, 21 May 2008 (UTC))
