most of the sources cited are articles in which her photos were used, not articles about her. there're also few independent publications online. not a very notable photographer, i'm afraid. RZuo (talk) 22:41, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – as per RZuo, while there are a few sources, most of them don't even mention the subject's name, and just show her photographs. Doesn't pass WP:CREATIVE... subject is not a notable photographer. Ajshul 😀 (talk) 22:48, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep She actually has a decent number of mentions in books and magazines. Here she is outlined in What Matters: The World's Preeminent Photojournalists and Thinkers Depict Essential Issues of Our Time, where her photos are also used. Here she with her creative work cited in Mother Jones as more than a normal photo credit. I would also argue that each time she's credited by name for use of her photography in more than a simple credit it works towards WP:CREATIVE:1. For instance here her photographs are being cited in a history book discussing the changes brought about by the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco. Additionally the sources already in the article do a lot to establish notability, especially this profile discussing her and her photography.

Delete Doesn't meet WP:SIGCOV guidlines to show WP:GNG per nom. Redoryxx (talk) 22:21, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
