Article issues[edit]

  • Notability: Need to demonstrate that the author meets WP:Notability (people); Specifically satisfying: 1. The person has received a notable award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times or 2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field. Alternatively, 1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by their peers or successors, 2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique, 3. The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, 4. The person's work either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 06:03, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
At the moment there is nothing there to assert or demonstrate such notability. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 06:03, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know when the preceding comments were written as they are unsigned, but here are three sources to demonstrate Larsen's notability:
  1. The Deena Larsen Collection is hosted at the Maryland Institute for Technologies and is a collection dedicated to her papers and works (see also one of several scholarly papers discussing this and other related archives[1]).
  2. The scholarly journal Dichtung Digital published an extensive interview with Larsen about her work in 2000[2]. There are many others.
  3. Her works have been the subject of extensive scholarly analysis, both in books and journals - in Poetics Today Mathiesen calls Larsen's 2001 work "Carving in Possibilities" canonic. [3]. There are many more examples - see for instance the pages for each of her works in the ELMCIP database for scholarship that cites her works, as here for Marble Springs Lijil (talk) 09:35, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So I think the current tags are justified. No one is threatening to actually delete this at the moment, just aying that if no notability is demonstarted it may be nominated for deletion. Hope this helps. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 06:03, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You still need to remove the in-line html links, if there is no wiki article then make the html into a reference if appropriate. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 21:09, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Work and notability[edit]

I'm not convinced that she is a notable author, but as I stumbled upon her site, she is the creator of a language called the "Rose language" (the Rose project).

http://www.thinkingrose.com/language/index.html Example of animations: http://www.deenalarsen.net/princess/index.html She made also "Marble Springs". It's here, and on a wikidot: http://www.deenalarsen.net I don't know which work is notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.91.51.235 (talk • contribs) 03:09, November 25, 2019 (UTC)

Added materials[edit]

I added a screenshot of Thie Pines at Walden Pond. I know I created this work sometime in 1999, but not sure now when. (Probably in the summer as I stayed a bit after the Technology Platforms in 21st Century conference from Brown University and got to work in the Trellix lab for a week or so.)

Leonardo Flores reviewed The Pines at Walden Pond in I love E-Poetry, October 31, 2012. http://iloveepoetry.org/?p=183. This work was published in 2000 in Cauldron and Net. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LoveElectronicLiterature (talk • contribs) 16:06, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Also, my works from Reclamation include: Bureau of Reclamation

Just to be clear, LoveElectronicLiterature (talk · contribs) is Deena Larsen, as made clear on her user talk page. She attended WikiConference North America this year to get a better handle on how things work in Wikipedia, etc. When she made this edit, she was a bit of a "newbie" to Wikipedia, didn't know yet exactly how she was supposed to do disclosure (or, apparently, to sign her posts). Sounds like she is much more oriented now. If anyone needs to reach her to clarify anything in particular, you can ask her the same way you'd reach any other Wikipedia editor. For obvious reasons, other than that one post here on the talk page, she has appropriately stayed away from the article about herself, but is clearly expert on her field, and she and her students are about to launch into doing a lot of biographies of writers, especially women writers, of electronic literature. - Jmabel | Talk 20:13, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW, while I'm not going to get into the question of whether she is notable as an author, she is clearly notable as a curator and as an institutional organizer within her field. - Jmabel | Talk 20:16, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
