Fails Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Creative professionals. Haven't been reviewed by any significant critic, haven't originated a significant new concept, haven't been widely cited by peers. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 19:15, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

  • Keep Having been chosen as artists in residence for the Art Gallery of Ontario is a very significant achievement. This is the main provincial art gallery for a province with 13 million people. They were profiled (550 words) in the Globe and Mail, Canada's second largest newspaper by circulation, with coast to coast distribution. A 1300 word article about them appeared in Canadian Art, an art magazine which has been published for 25 years and has a current circulation of 19,000. *They were profiled in This, an award winning magazine with a 45 year history. WP:ARTIST applies only if the topic fails general notability. —Anne Delong (talk) 20:22, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Keep Added one source, but the Globe & Mail/Canadian Art refs appear to meet GNG by themselves, and WP:ARTIST (3) last clause. --j⚛e deckertalk 20:18, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Keep Allow time for sourcing to be added. TheOneSean [ U | T | C ] 22:42, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

  • Keep. The article needs cleaning up, proper formatting and hopefully expanding but the sources provided plus being exhibited at the AGO and the Power Plant more than satisfy WP:GNG and WP:ARTIST. freshacconci talktalk 23:06, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

  • Keep: references support notability. PamD 06:44, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Keep Per Anne Delong, notability is clearly established, this article has potential to be developed. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 10:36, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Keep - Sourcing in the article is sufficient to establish notability. I'd also say that being named artists in residence at the AGO would qualify under #1 for WP:ARTIST. I've cleaned up the references so that they are all inline now. -- Whpq (talk) 19:24, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Keep Time should be allowed for extensions to be made for this article, I do believe this meets WP:N. AppleJack7Dear Princess Celestia... 02:26, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
