Lacks media coverage. The three mentions in ArtNotes are quite short; one gives a little detail about the prize; the other two only mention the winner. John Vandenberg (chat) 09:59, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment If it isn't notable, we should transwiki or create a page on Commons given that project has many related images. John Vandenberg (chat) 10:13, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Useful and reasonable article about an aspect of contemporary art in Australia. Good credentials with hosting organisation and judging panel. An ongoing event. Refs also given from The Canberra Times. At the very least merge to Australian National University. No cause for deletion. Ty 10:51, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- KEEP but I would say that, as I am the person who created the page, and I was the President/Chairman of the organiation at the time of its endowment and creation (some AU$17,000). The annual prize has been AU$5,000. The point of the Prize was that people would create religious-themed art. This has been a national as well as local prize, for the Australian Capital Territory but also Australia and internationally. Hundreds of artists have participated through the arrangement and sponsorship by the Australian National University and its Institute of Art. Even if this prize dies out, it has been a significant art prize, and deserves to be memorialised. - Peter Ellis - Talk 11:26, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Australian National University - not enough coverage to have an independent article, but a well-sourced paragraph on this on the University's article would be relevant. Claritas § 13:13, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Australian National University or keep, I don't see the point of deletion...Modernist (talk) 23:22, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I don't understand why "Lacks media coverage" is an argument for deletion, let alone a sufficient argument for deletion. Pdfpdf (talk) 10:21, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- By "Lacks media coverage", I am saying that I dont believe it is notable. i.e. this article fails the policy WP:N, IMO. The Canberra Times is the local newspaper for the region where the ANU is situated; we generally disregard such sources as evidence of notability because they are reporting on local issues. As far as I can tell, this is the only newspaper which has ever mentioned the Phoenix Prize. Being attached to a university doesn't automatically make an award notable; external recognition of the award is required. John Vandenberg (chat) 08:25, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
