Quantum Fine Art

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Disputed PROD. I have searched for independent reliable sources to support this gallery's notablilty, but cannot find any. PROD was removed by author with edit summary that the notability can be verified, but did not provide reliable sources. Singularity42 (talk) 20:16, 16 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep/Comment. Reliable sources: QFA represents notable artist Christian Furr, who was the youngest artist to ever paint HM Queen Elizabeth II: at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Furr. My apologies, I am new to Wikipedia and am not altogether sure where and what to post. Thank you for your advice. Hope the above resolves the issue. Thanks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Juno1827736 (talk • contribs) 20:23, 16 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Juno, welcome to Wikipedia! Here's the issue in a nutshell.  For Wikipedia to have an article about a subject, it must be meet the guideline at WP:Notable. Generally speaking there needs to be multiple, independent, reliable secondary sources that cover the subject in a non-trivial way.  A Wikipedia article about an artist who has had works at the gallery does not meet the criteria because that is not an about the gallery. Singularity42 (talk) 20:30, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm also failing to find independent sources through Google Search. But that's not to say that the gallery hasn't been discussed in sources outside Google's reach. So if there are such (articles in art journals, newspapers etc), please reference them into the article. (This article was created less than 40 mins before appearing at AfD; I hope the creator can be given a bit of time to demonstrate notability.) AllyD (talk) 21:05, 16 July 2011 (UTC)


 * I would usually agree that there may be sources outside of Google's reach. But the claim is that this is a gallery with highly notable artists, and has an international base.  One might expect just a couple relevant Ghits. Singularity42 (talk) 21:56, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete As nothing's been added despite the above, and nothing evident in other available resources to indicate notability. AllyD (talk) 21:08, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
