Delete has been tagged for notability concerns since 2008; still doesn't seem to have been established. Boleyn2 (talk) 11:35, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I haven't a clue how to search for sources for Irish painters, but enough galleries far and wide have exhibited him, and a lot of his artwork pops up here and there. Several galleries profile him. Article quality and current article state are no reason to delete - I am commenting on potential. Hopefully someone more familiar than me can source something more concrete. Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:44, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Couldn't find any significant independent coverage. Has been included in several exhibitions, but I'm not sure WP:ARTIST is met here. A few examples of significant coverage would help.--Michig (talk) 14:10, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete There is no apparent significant coverage available and his exhibition record does not satisfy WP:ARTIST. This also fails WP:BIO due to the lack of non-trivial sources. freshacconci talktalk 13:49, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - or else he will become a struggling artist, and we don't want that on our consciences, do we?Red Hurley (talk) 14:05, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment As you've been on Wikipedia for 3 years, I can only hope that's a joke. It is, isn't it? freshacconci talktalk 15:45, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I don't see where he passes WP:CREATIVE. Niteshift36 (talk) 18:26, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not ready for an encyclopedia, non-notable painter...Modernist (talk) 14:39, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep now extra sources added. Ty 15:22, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep (as article creator) - as sourcing has now been provided by Tyrenius. Ceoil sláinte 15:24, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
