Highly promotional BLP with no sources; old enough that it missed our filters; possible that it might survive if we had some actual sources and removed all the NPOV violations (peacock words, etc.). Orange Mike | Talk 00:09, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I agree the article is currently poorly written, however, a quick search on the "news" link above shows significant coverage by major publications: The New York Times (several feature articles), Architectural Digest, Creative Time Reports, ArtNews, New York Magazine, Huffington Post, ArtForum. A quick search on Google Books shows inclusion in numerous books by credible publishers, and several citations on Google Scholar. The artist is notable, it is the article that needs improvement.

  • This is a clear Keep. I stopped counting Google Book refs at 15. Here's a profile of her by Creative Time, which is an organization that is about as cutting-edge/snotty/highbrow/contemporary as you can get in the contemporary art world. Needs a major rewrite, but she is clearly notable.104.163.150.250 (talk) 05:49, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Update: I added 18 or so refs, and discovered that she is in the collection of the Tate Museum in London, and just last year was a Guggenheim Fellow. The article did look bad when nominated! However it is time to withdraw the nomination I think.104.163.150.250 (talk) 06:33, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Article could be edited to flow better, but should be in the Keep category. I added some references, as well as details about her work on the RN patch, which apparently was a low-budget, easy solution that helped re-brand RNs in the workplace. It's been in at least one book and seems to make this artist more noteworthy. Westendgirl (talk) 08:29, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
