Delete as per nom. Could be merged into Civilian Warfare Gallery, maybe. Ari T. Benchaim (talk) 01:21, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. SIGCOV is the major issue. Many of the sources currently in the article are passing mentions of the "so-and-so took a picture of him" or "he was the co-director/curator of this" variety. Further source searches on Newspapers.com and OpenLibrary yielded more "opened a gallery with Dean Savard" and "gallery now closing" passing mentions. I don't think there's anything to be merged to the gallery article: the content that's unsourced at Civilian Warfare Gallery is similarly unsourced in the Barrow article (precise locations of the gallery, "launch the careers ...").Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 12:44, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
