 * Delete fails WP:NARTIST. Theroadislong (talk) 19:15, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: PROMO, largely sourced to his university or personal websites. I don't find mention of this person elsewhere online. Oaktree b (talk) 19:27, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete The best I could find for a reliable source was a three-sentence mention in a Spokane newspaper. Curiocurio (talk) 21:59, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails WP:NARTIST. YouTube links are highly promotional. Not enough coverage by reliable sources to establish notability of the subject. - Tumbuka Arch (talk) 22:09, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Comment: I found one detailed source about the subject:  The book provides 664 words of coverage about the subject. The book notes: "Pierre Gervois is an artist, author, teacher, and entrepreneur. He grew up in a conservative, traditional French family in Paris. When Pierre told his parents that he wanted to study modern art, they insisted he pursue a more predictable career in business, law, or engineering. He followed their wishes, earning a master's degree in political science and constitutional law at Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris. Unknown to them, though, during those years he also created 500 paintings and drawings." The book notes: "In addition to his entrepreneurial venture, Pierre rekindled his passion for art. With downtime during the 2020 pandemic, he created a website to show his paintings, drawings, and digital artwork. Within six weeks, he sold five pieces. The website also caught the attention of a New York City art gallery that wanted to exhibit his work." </li> </ol>If there was one more good source, then Pierre Gervois would meet the notability guideline. The other sources I found were passing mentions or quotes from him in the media. Cunard (talk) 00:09, 14 April 2024 (UTC) </li></ul>
 * Delete because with only one good source, Pierre Gervois does not meet Notability or Notability (people). I support recreation if a second good reliable source becomes available. Cunard (talk) 09:31, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete: Artist did arts. No WP:SIGCOV references, so fails WP:ANYBIO. UtherSRG (talk) 11:05, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: For all the above reasons (notability & banned creator).Southati (talk) 13:02, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
