An article on a Taiping painter, created in 2012 by WP:SPA Devlenyeoh. The closest that the article comes to a claim of notability is that the subject won an unspecified prize at a 1982 competition and had works in a Society's group shows in 1983-4, but these are insufficient for the WP:NARTIST criteria. Searches find little beyond cloned articles (example); searches on sites covering the Malaysian Watercolour Society find nothing either. Unless better can be found, this fails WP:NARTIST, WP:GNG.

- Delete No hits in Jstory, Scholar or the NYT, two hits in Chinese I can't read. Might be found in offline or paper sources given the age. Oaktree b (talk) 01:45, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I'm not finding anything to indicate that this watercolorist meets WP criteria for notability per WP:GNG nor WP:NARTIST. It seems that it may be a COI creation, and while that is not grounds for deletion, the lack of SIGCOV in reliable sources is. Netherzone (talk) 18:43, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
