Too soon. She may be notable someday, but right now she really doesn't have the depth of coverage needed for WP:GNG. ubiquity (talk) 17:54, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Anood Al Obaidly is a known emerging artist in UAE, and we need to include her in the list of the Emirati artists. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Donalmikel (talk • contribs) 08:03, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the deletion notice by mistake. Now, am keeping it until this discussion is settled. donalmikel —Preceding undated comment added 07:50, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The page has been edited by a minor change in its references and content. It may meets the wikipedia criteria. donalmikel

Is there still an option to rethink about deleting the page? I think the recent changes does meet the wikipedia criteria. donalmikel —Preceding undated comment added 08:28, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I still think it is too soon. The artist's main case for notability seems to be that she was one of fifteen artists selected, in one year, as an emerging artist. Wikipedia wants articles on artists who have already emerged. Of the other four references, three just indicate that she has been included in exhibitions, and one is a feature article that does not explain what she is known for, other than being a local artist. Here are the criteria for notability in an artist, according to WP:NARTIST:

The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.
The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique.
The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
The person's work (or works) 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.

I do not believe the subject satisfies any of these criteria. ubiquity (talk) 13:43, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Please note Donalmikel is a single purpose account. Donalmikel, deletion discussions usually run for seven days. I vote delete and agree with nom that it is WP:TOOSOON, and also WP:WAYTOOSOON. There are one or two decent refs, but these do not amount to significant coverage. New Media Theorist (talk) 00:57, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment as the article says, she is an "Emerging Artist". New Media Theorist (talk) 01:00, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete She just finished a BFA and has had a few small exhibitions. This doesn't pass GNG nor WP:ARTIST at this time. Obviously WP:TOOSOON with absolutely no prejudice to recreating the article in a few years if notability is established then. freshacconci talk to me 01:47, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
