cannot verify claim of international artist, local news, and notability not assured from work detailed. As WP:NARTIST appears WP:TOOSOON, combined with obvious promo WP:SPA / undisclosed paid editing socks Widefox ; talk 15:28, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. She does not seem to satisfy WP:ARTIST at this time.  Although there is coverage, it seems restricted to her local newspapers.  I think we'd need to see something a bit more national before she qualified for an article.  There are a few hits at Highbeam, but I'm not sure they're the same person.

 * Delete Insufficient -significant- coverage. Mduvekot (talk) 13:42, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep: Artist's works are covered in numerous national publications and have been exhibited across U.S. Coverage is not "restricted to her local newspapers". (works are even subject to some political controversy/scandal in Topeka Kansas ) -- dsprc   [talk]  19:12, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Addendum: Issues with SPA are independent of notability and may be addressed separately. Zero evidence provided of paid editing (which is fine and allowed) or sockpuppetry. -- dsprc   [talk]  19:28, 2 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep it did not take much searching to find reliable sources. Passes GNG exactly as User:Dsprc says.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:12, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lack of notability is not the only reason for deletion. Borderline notability combined with clear promotionalism is an equally good reason. Small variations to the notability standard either way do not fundamentally harm the encycopedia, but accepting articles that are part of a promotional campaign causes great damage. Once we become a vehicle for promotion, we're useless as an encyclopedia.  But just in case the article should unaccountably be kept, I rmeoved the worst of the promotion.

 * Delete as there are loads of sources and information along with it, but simply nothing actually insinuating Wikipedia article, there's nothing else convincing. SwisterTwister   talk  03:49, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
