 * Comment The article has 53 sources., are you saying no combination of these sources is adequate for GNG? There are a few GBooks sources as well, for example this. He also seems to be widely recognized among his peers as a curator.--- Possibly (talk) 00:30, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I have no particular opinion. This article was flagged with a low readability score, but the Guild of Copy Editors won't touch it if it might be deleted. I needed folks more familiar with the guidelines to render a final decision so either it can be deleted or cleanup can start. -- Beland (talk) 09:19, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - He is really well known, for decades, particularly in the art-and-technoscience realm...all the way back to E.A.T. as a creative maker and later as a curator. The notability tag on the article (from 2013) is in relation to music only (see tag for details) but he is not known for his music, he's known in the visual arts.

 * Keep per the Recognition section alone, not to mention the dozens of references. Randy Kryn (talk) 12:37, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Stephen Nowlin is widely recognised. The guy has a vast amount of credible references that make him notable. These are just a few from a brief search.  Stuhunter83 (talk) 10:49, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
