[edit] Malou Bonicos

Malou Bonicos (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable illustrator who created an obscure children's series. Article reads like a resume, and it has such detailed personal information I suspect it was created by a friend or family member. No reliable sources found to confirm notability, just trivial references. Masaruemoto 00:44, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete - per WP:BIO. Artist might qualify for inclusion, but that isn't evident from the article that looks like a product of WP:COI from three accounts that only edit this article; see [1] [2] [3]). Lipsticked Pig 03:16, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep-- if she worked with Hunter Davies and actually designed a TV series, that's notable. Rhinoracer 19:05, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Comment A Google search for "Malou Bonicos" + "Hunter Davies" gives ZERO results, excluding Wikipedia mirrors. The TV series "The Beeps" + "Malou Bonicos" gives less than 20 results, none of them substantial. If you can provide significant reliable sources confirming her notability, please do so.

  • Keep-- She has worked with Hunter Davies on the Ossie book series, a quick search of Amazon.co.uk shows her name, but just as Malou (without Bonicos), and incorrectly as Editor, not illustrator. She also appears as the creator of The Beeps the BFI, which I would've thought a reliable source. The Beeps has appeared on UK TV, why is that so obscure? If she is deemed not noteable enough, perhaps some could be combined into The Beeps. Stuartea 11:30, 4 June 2007 (UTC).
