Non-notable artist with 0 links at Google News. Mentions at Google are commercial (galleries, e-stores). Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:51, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There are enough mentions in Google Books to indicate her notability. Most are only snippet view so will need someone with access to hardcopies to use as references. Derek Andrews (talk) 23:12, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. A noted Inuit artist with works in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada [1] and the Winnipeg Art Gallery [2]. Her entry in the Canadian Women Artists History Initiative [3] includes a substantial list of print sources about her that can be used to expand the article. --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:16, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep The list of publications available at the Canadian Women Artists History Initiative link above is enough to establish notability. Being in the collection of the National Gallery of Canada plus Winnipeg Art Gallery clinches it. Google books and scholar provide several solid hits as well. This is obviously keep. freshacconci (✉) 00:34, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per the findings above. Thsmi002 (talk) 01:04, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
STRONG KEEP The nominator obviously did not search this out per WP:BEFORE. Many editors above did, and what they found was the same as what I found: numerous major museums include her work in permanent collections. The National Gallery of Canada and so on. She therefore meets WP:ARTIST, end of discussion. Suggest that Bbarmadillo withdraw this nom. 104.163.148.25 (talk) 03:59, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also note this page gives seven alternate English spellings for her Inuit name, as well as an excellent list of her shows.104.163.148.25 (talk) 04:03, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not a deletion criteria, but her work is fabulous.104.163.148.25 (talk) 04:06, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Very sorry for the confusion. I should've done more research before nominating. But it looks like the deletion nomination actually improved the article a lot. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 05:22, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
