WP:DSARTIST

Please add MUSIC-related discussions to Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Music, not here.

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Artists (in the visual arts only). 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:

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.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Artists|~~~~}} 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.

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 Artists (in the visual arts only). 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.

Archived discussions (starting from April 2016) may be found at:

Anna Rita Centura

Proposed deletion declined by paid editor. PROD'ed as "There is no coverage in independent, reliable sources. The subject's most notable exhibition is the Florence biennial, which is a pay-to-exhibit event. Does not come close to meeting the notability guidelines for artists, WP:ARTIST" those concerns remain. Vexations (talk) 15:40, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Women-related deletion discussions. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 15:56, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I am not finding anything in a BEFORE search to substantiate notability, just her own website & social media posts, which do not count towards notability. No museum collections nor in-depth critical, art-historical coverage in reliable sources. Does not meet criteria for WP:NARTIST nor WP:GNG. Netherzone (talk) 16:33, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete GNG and NARTIST fail. Possibly (talk) 16:58, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage. Fails WP:GNG or WP:NARTIST. There's also the UPE issue. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 18:20, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There are no secondary and reliable sources with significant coverage about the artist. And I didn't see any signs of complying with WP: ARTIST. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 18:30, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per NARTST, GNG, WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:SNOW. I found zero hits on Google newspapers. She has no works in major collections or museums. She has fifty-one (51) followers on Twitter under @arcentura, and most of those are animal rights groups, not fans of her art. We are not a social media account or free web service, and in 2021, everyone knows that after our 20 years in existence. There seems to be unanimous accord to delete this page. I would need a lot to convince me to change my mind. Bearian (talk) 01:38, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:ANYBIO and WP:NACTOR. Nothing notable on a WP:BEFORE. Two minor roles in the past in films and one in a show. Thank you, Kolma8 (talk) 20:45, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep, passes WP:GNG, is a star in two upcoming films of high coverage, in particular his role in the Sopranos film. Rusted AutoParts 20:47, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

as a note, Rusted AutoParts is the original creator of the article. Kolma8 (talk) 21:16, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep easily meets WP:NACTOR. KidAd talk 20:53, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

KidAd: Which of the those three WP:NACTOR:

1 Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.

2 Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following.

3 Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.

Thanks, Kolma8 (talk) 20:58, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Many Saints of Newark is the primary one, he's playing Tony Soprano. This is garnering significant media coverage as he's the son of Soprano's original actor. Also has a major support role in Cherry. Rusted AutoParts 21:23, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning keep. Even though the upcoming films are only upcoming films, they are high-profile enough projects that the casting being done is enough to describe the subject's role with respect to the work. BD2412 T 22:32, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep. Lol what kind of nom is this - keep per Rusted AutoParts. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 22:39, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the nominator's talk page, it appears they have a history of – let's say "frivolous" – AfD and PROD noms. KidAd talk 22:44, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

KidAd: It's a dishonor that you're so easy to drop a precedent ad hominem. Kolma8 (talk) 21:12, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep...really? This is a clear NACTOR pass as previously discussed. Vaticidalprophet (talk) 05:17, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Lots of current and likely more future coverage for Sopranos movie. Not sure about other roles but I think that alone has generated enough for an inclusion.-- LostLogin (talk) 18:37, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:SIGCOV in Esquire, E!, and other sources. I would not label this nomination as "frivolous." Bearian (talk) 21:19, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hari Singh (artist)

Comment The article lacks footnotes, but some sources are listed under External links. I found some mention in Srivastava, R. P. (1983). Punjab Painting. Abhinav Publications. ISBN 978-81-7017-174-4., Aryan, K. C. Punjab Painting. Punjabi University. and Dhamija, Ram. Sixty Years of Writing on Art & Crafts in India: From Roopa-lekha, 1928-1988. Sterling Publishers. ISBN 978-81-207-0804-4.. It's not much and I have reservations about Singh being "one of the greatest artist of India". Vexations (talk) 19:54, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I made an effort to find more sources than I mentioned in my comment above, but found nothing. I can't read Punjabi, but the two other versions of this article don't appear to have any references. Vexations (talk) 13:11, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- I do not think you meant what you said. I do not believe Haber-Schaim is housed at the Smithsonian. I believe what you meant to say is "she has work that is contained in the Smithsonian's permanent collection".John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:22, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Technically, this artist might be notable, but we'd need to add a lot more information, such as an actual biography. Please ping me if you find more details. Bearian (talk) 18:43, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, her extensive work, with a lifetime of occasional successes, adds to the source material. The Smithsonian permanent collection holding doesn't come easy or else it would include millions of artists, and adds to her notability range. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:40, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep ~~or at least Wait~~. I'm inclined to agree with Randy Kryn, she definitely seems notable even if poorly sourced. WestCD (talk) 02:31, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- WestCD, wait for what and for how long? Vexations (talk) 17:59, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
