• Delete: 83 Google hits [1], and only a single reliable source among them, provided that this "Times-News" is one. Nothing to presume this person passes WP:BIO, and I'm interested in sourcing for the "internationally recognized" remark, because none of those hits reflect anything of the sort.  RGTraynor  07:55, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
• No books to cite. No arguments for why you shouldn't delete the article. All information is reputable, yet cannot be cited. However, I would like to know what does make an artist notable. Perhaps provide a link to Wikipedia's least notable artist so others will know what it takes to be accepted by Wikipedia's standards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.33.42.113 (talk) 17:14, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, the Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals provides a list of criteria for notability in this area. If you think at some future date Windy Lampson does then fulfill the criteria you can apply for an undelete to get this information back at WP:DRV. I had a brief look through the deletion reviews, I found this one recently that survived a deletion review Rick Bartow, I don't think this is the minimum standard but it is hard to find the 'least notable', I am 99% sure that there will be artists listed in wikipedia that should be deleted but have not been nominated for deletion yet. The review details are here Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rick Bartow. GameKeeper (talk) 19:28, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

• Delete unless "award-winning, internationally recognized" is substantiated - the two very recent references don't bear this out. For my money Carlo Frigerio, though not modern, is perhaps our narrowest squeak through here. Rick Bartow was a clear keep to my mind. Johnbod (talk) 01:04, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
