Steph Goodger

Little known artist in France. Fails WP:BIO in that she does not have wide name recognition, very few secondary sources, no independent biography, and no major contribution to the arts. David Andreas 19:07, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep: Yes, this article reads like a cut and paste from a gallery bio, and yes, the notability is probably shaky. It's still questionable to file an AfD only hours after the creation of such an article; I suggest giving the creator a chance to finish it and come up with sources.

Weak keep for now, per User:RGTraynor. Article is still rather fresh, give it a couple days first. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps)))} 20:07, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article looks more like a job resume than a real article. I don't really see the reason it was created/cut pasted there in the first place. Gtadoc 23:01, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I see a delete in this article's future unless some one comes back to it shortly. There is a glimmer of notability in the resumé style. If not a speedy, it should have had some time with a less intimidating tag. --Stormbay 23:12, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I apologize, I didn't check to see if it was just created. I will do so in the future. (I only found it because someone placed a wikify tag on it while I was in the process of wikifying articles.) However, even if it were edited, the person wouldn't fit with WP:BIO per my original nomination. --David Andreas 00:56, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Certainly no apology necessary and, in reading my previous, it sounds judgmental. I tend to tag with things like "importance" and "sources" and watch for a day or two in the hopes that the initiator or others will rescue. {I agree that your assessment is likely correct). --Stormbay 01:24, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- is it possible that there has been a mistranslation here, based upon the phonics between french and English, and that the subject of the article, and therefore the "notability" criterion, is Stephanie Goodyear ?? -- Simon Cursitor

Reply: No, the name is correct. There aren't many Google hits for the name, but the lead one is Goodger's website, showing the artist's portfolio. Like the nom, my gut impression is that the artist probably fails notability. RGTraynor 13:06, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the article needs to be completely re written. Modernist 15:02, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Everyday working artist, not-notable, and with a very poor article to boot. Johnbod 17:05, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
