We seem to be getting multiple CSD nominations for this article, however I suspect that's because the editor wasn't aware of wiki markup. I've done some cleanup, but still the CSD tagging continues. I don't believe it should be deleted, because of her relationship with Peter Carey, and the fact that she is prominent enough to be shown in the Australian Victorian Art Gallery. I'm taking this to review to clear this matter up. Tbsdy (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) ^talk 01:12, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Her association with Peter Carey is of no relevance here as notability isn't inherited. She is mentioned in passing in at least one Australian newspaper article, as the artist he lived with, but it should be noted that the article is about him and she is just mentioned. Her one real claim to notability is that one of her paintings is in the Victorian Art Gallery collection (added in 1988). Other than that, there are only a couple of small exhibitions. Any sourced mention of her is in publications about Carey, where she is only mentioned in passing. At best, this should be merged with his article as she does not appear to have independent notability per WP:BIO or WP:CREATIVE. Currently, the Carey article does not mention her. I know nothing of Carey, so I don't know if adding her is appropriate. But on its own, this article is unsourced with no apparent sources available which are independent of her relationship with Carey. Likewise, one painting in a museum's permanent collection is insufficient to establish notability. freshacconci talktalk 13:45, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The Peter Carey article now notes her association with Carey, and verifiable and reliable references have been found. - Tbsdy (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) ^talk 04:15, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
