Faustine definitely meets wikipedia's notability standards, with hundreds of articles about her work and many exhibitions in prominent venues. Propose removing notability template. BMAVP318 —Preceding unsigned comment added by BMAVP318 (talk • contribs) 15:04, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
@BMAVP318: I added the template because the subject fails WP:NARTIST; specifically, none of her works are notable (in that we don't have a standalone article about them) and none of her work (from what I can see) is in a permanent collection. She's still living and unsurprisingly, much of this reads like it was written by fans. If you're making a claim that she passes WP:GNG, I'm not sure the bar is that low. That a maintenance template is present on the article only helps other Wikipedians see that the article needs work. The template is not a criticism of the subject or the editors that contributed to the article. It is only there to encourage improvement. Chris Troutman (talk)15:28, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
