Deletion Sorting
Project

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Visual arts. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Visual arts|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Visual arts. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

For Visual arts listings only:

  • A simple tag to put on AfD discussions as an alternative to the coding given above under "tag an AFD" is:
{{subst:LVD}}
It displays exactly the same message, but is easier to remember.

Maristela Tayoko

Maristela Tayoko (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)

On pt-wiki there was a deletion discussion: pt:Wikipedia:Páginas para eliminar/Maristela Tayoko da Silva Lenior and the article was kept because the number of votes to delete was not enough. Does not seem to be notable. I couldn't find any independent reliable sources about her. There is no information about expositions or anything (even on her website!) to indicate any notability. she only sells her artwork on her website.

Fernando Mastrangelo (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)

Fails WP:CREATIVE, WP:BIO, WP:N, lacking significant coverage in reliable sources. The article itself only asserts notability by mentioning galleries he was shown in, and a google news search lists only 4 name drops which aren't enough to establish notability.

Tagged for speedy deletion and contested. There is a clear assertion of notability and this is not a WP:CSD#A7 candidate. Other issues should be considered. Neutral nomination. Chick Bowen 17:08, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per lack of reliable sources. The three sources cited in the article are from the artist's profiles in the art organizations that she has exhibited her work. These art organizations do not appear to be that notable. A Google News Archive search returns few results and a Google search only returns results from unreliable sources. The only semi-reliable article I could find about this individual is from findarticles.com in which this person is given a trivial mention at the bottom of the article. This artist completely fails WP:BIO. Cunard (talk) 17:26, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response: You're right. Those three art organizations are fairly notable but their notability isn't enough to establish the notability of this artist. If you can find a couple reliable sources to establish this artist's notability (from newspapers such as The New York Times or Washington Post), I'm willing to reconsider my vote. Cunard (talk) 18:31, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response:I think there's enough credibility in Scultpure Space [[1]] profile that links her up to her other exhibitions and displays, among them these three sources. I can't read the wikipedia notability criteria in a way that makes this article "not worthy" of an encyclopedic article as she fulfills several of them cited above, and so is a reliable source linking the artist to the other highly regarded sources. I can't find anything in the NY Times of Washington Post, but neither do I think that is necessary as there are other sources, not as publicly known, but still so in the world of art. She is also a member of a family that actually has its own wikipedia category in which I don't think she can really be subject to exclusion from as it is of public interest, which I think is another reason why she is relevant for a wikipedia article. Sulven (talk) 20:01, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response: The link you provided is not a reliable source. It is from one of the sites that she is affiliated with. Third-party sources will provide verifiability and notability for her. Furthermore, even though her family has a category, notability is not inherited. Her family members might be notable, but "the fact that she has famous relatives is not, in and of itself, sufficient to justify an independent article." I've tried to find reliable sources for this artist but couldn't find any. I just don't see how she passes WP:BIO. Cunard (talk) 21:48, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Cunard. Insufficient coverage by independent reliable sources to satisfy WP:CREATIVE. No reviews of her work in the newsmedia that I could find, nothing in googlenews[2]. Nsk92 (talk) 23:00, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response Too bad as they say. No one except Cunard said notability is inherited, I just find it relevant and interesting within the context of being an actual artist on your own merit, and being from a known artist family, there is a major difference which I think is a point that wasn't considered here. It's kind of a shame that administrators would narrow criteria for articles to more than what seems within the limits of them (even if they seem to have good enough reason. The article did no harm, was about an actual professional artist who made her living out of art for over two years, is relevant in her field, which is rather narrow (but no less important) and thus not picked up easily by the big media. It wasn't self-promoting or made by a friend, or by some promoter/producer/handler etc, but someone who admire the art. It seems strange in an encyclopedia of this magnitude that there wouldn't be any room for this?

Does not meet criteria for notability, no secondary sources cited; non neutral point of view Shelly No (talk) 17:06, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: This article has been previously nominated for deletion due to lack of notability. It has also been previously tagged for non-neutral point of view. The original editor claims to have written it "with" the subject. It has the feel of a resume or advertisement. All external links point to the subject's web site. Subject's graduate thesis is cited as a publication. Google searches turn up some primary sources and a few local newspapers. Fails WP:CREATIVE. Not notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shelly No (talk • contribs) 19:04, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Living people-related deletion discussions. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 00:02, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete What is claimed as his major work is present in only two libraries, according to WorldCat. DGG (talk) 09:12, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Photography-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp | talk to me 21:43, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Authors-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp | talk to me 21:51, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The main book listed is a self-publication and the other is his portfolio. No independent sources verifying his notability found, just self-promotion websites and blogs. Could find no evidence for him being a 'social critic'. Nothing notable about his academic acheivements.Jenafalt (talk) 11:01, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom for the reasons cited: non-notable subject and indications of conflict-of-interest. --Lockley (talk) 02:49, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Notability not established --Dreamspy (talk) 19:08, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
