Non-notable painting. Article has a single source, and I cannot find others. Created by an SPA who only mostly edits articles on the painter Willem Jan Pieter van der Does. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 16:03, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your interest and help! I do realize that it is not perfect, and regarding about my SPA, yes I am not a senior editor here in Wikipedia, I am just a young person who wanted to share my stories and knowledge regarding about the artist's life and importance in carrying the history... In my opinion, every page in Wikipedia is a work in progress, and it should be allowed as long as it showed an interest and history in some kind... I, again, not an expert in writing in Wikipedia, I'm trying my best, and with this I am hoping that it is not about what's full and perfect, but rather about a public knowledge an in this matter people could appreciate more about an artwork and part of a history in this world :). An artwork cant be perfect in it's provenance and history, but it could widely impact the public in seeing the history itself. Thank you very much for your interest and time in considering my progress! I truly appreciate it! Hendricolucky (talk) 11:18, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Hendricolucky: the very short answer to that is that we do not have articles on everything. We only have articles on the English Wikipedia that are on notable things. Notability is determined by quality and depth of published sources.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 05:18, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge - into the article on the artist Willem Jan Pieter van der Does, as it seems that he is notable. (His article needs cleaning up. @Hendricolucky:, since you are interested in the artist merging may be a way of improving the encyclopedia and not totally losing info on this painting. Just a thought...). Netherzone (talk) 13:16, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or Delete. The painting does not appear to be the subject of a body of writing. Ewulp (talk) 00:23, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete there are no sources, and all content is WP:OR. collectie.wereldculturen.nl has an number of works by van der Does, but none by this title. Vexations (talk) 12:05, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge As contains useful and interesting info. Ceoil (talk) 14:19, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
