Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because this article has been edited. It talks about the artist and the work she has done in her career. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Secuur2k (talkcontribs) 22:44, 8 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (The article was revised and edited as well as referencing has been added) --Mlscawsand (talk) 00:21, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

includes lots of citations. Seems like the deletion is unwarranted. --Chittah (talk) 04:12, 13 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

the article was created at an editathon at the unversity of regina, where carmen robertson herself was there. a new book written by her coming out soon which needs promotion. this stinks. it is not important if it legally is a conflict of interest. carmen robertson could have said "please do not put my name on a list on the university i work for, in a room where i am, with people i know very well". it shades too much bad taste on the whole story, and with it damages other similar style events. to let this happen i consider bad behavior or bad character, from the organizers, from persons there, and carmen robertson. carmen robertson might be one of the nicest and competent persons on this planet - but damaging her reputation with an unnecessary story like this is not worth it, imo. --ThurnerRupert (talk) 16:27, 13 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • I think this another datum in the wall of evidence indicating the gradual slide of WP toward a directory. This person is not notable by our conventional standards (holdings, cites, sources) and is yet another example of the boosterism that will eventually ruin WP as an encyclopedic resource.
