[edit] Directions for expanding any division below
The general outline and collection has been started, but if you would like to expand and organize a discipline, here's what you do. Right below the page heading for the discipline insert this: {{subst:Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Work groups/Division banner}} and save. This will put a rough outline together for you and then you can edit it to conform to your area. See Writers and critics below for an example. If your project grows large enough where it's taking up a good portion of this page, you should probably move it to a subpage of this page.
You might also want to make a Members section for people to join your specific area!
[edit] Tagging articles
Any article related to this work group should be marked by adding a&e-work-group=yes to the {{WPBiography}} project banner at the top of its talk page This will automatically place it into Category:Arts and entertainment work group articles.

- Dom Martin (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)
With (perhaps) one exception this entire article is self-sourced. Notability is claimed but not substantiated via reliable independent sources. The article is authored primarily by the artist and one of his friends. This article has been speedied twice, but this was protested by an author with a conflict of interest, so I bring it here for the community to review. Rklawton (talk) 04:31, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Per Rklawton. Promotional. I nominated the article once for speedy deletion, with rationale here [1]. No reliable sources, conflict of interest. JNW (talk) 05:02, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete--I agree entirely with nominator. These COIs, especially when those folks refuse to address issues and simply delete tags, that really rubs me the wrong way. But even if it didn't, I don't see notability in the article, and didn't find any outside of it either. Drmies (talk) 05:11, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per above, No reliable, verifiable notability, and speedy deletion was probably the correct decision..Modernist (talk) 05:14, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Clubmarx (talk) 05:16, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
I am the author of the subject article and have been invited by administrator Rklawton to participate on this discussion page.
Below are three references which were not appended to my original article on Dom Martin. They verify the permanent exhibition of the artwork of Dom Martin in the art gallery of the Bom Jesus Basilica (a World Heritage Monument in Old Goa, India):
http://www.archgoadaman.org/Dioceses/SFX/prog.html
http://christianartmuseum.goa-india.org/index.php?page=of-museums-and-more
http://www.dommartin.cc/Boise%20Vision%20article.htm
The first reference is to a page on the website for the Archdiocese of Goa, which contains a copy of the official brochure for the 2004 exposition of the body of St. Francis Xavier at the Bom Jesus Basilica, and states: “Art Gallery in the Basilica, featuring: a) paintings and crayons on Christian motifs by Dom Martin, well-known exponent of Surrealism, of Goan origin, now settled in the United States of America; . . .”
The second reference is to the website of the Christian Art Museum, Goa, India, which indicates: “The Bom Jesus Basilica art gallery. http://www.dommartin.cc/Basilica%20ptgs/Basilica%20ptgs%20index.htm This gallery was established in 1976 and quite easily, is the first and largest one of its kind in the eyes of onlookers. With the exception of the Archaeological Museum in Old Goa, the Basilica art gallery predates most -- if not all the galleries and museums mentioned above.” [Note the direct link on the Christian Art Museum website to the artwork of Dom Martin in the Bom Jesus Basilica Art Gallery.]
The third reference given above is to a photocopy of an article that appeared in a 1980 Boise Vision magazine [appended to Dom Martin’s website]. Boise Vision states: “In 1970, the Jesuit Rector of the Basilica, commissioned a relatively unknown painter, Dom Martin, to decorate the Basilica’s art gallery with paintings depicting the Saint’s [Francis Xavier] life as well as works illustrating other religious themes . . .”
Referring to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people), Wikipedia lists “Additional Criteria” for notability. Of particular applicability, under “Creative Professionals” is the criterion: “the person’s work either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition . . .” [emhasis added] And under “Any Biography”: “The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field.”
As the Basilica Art Gallery is part of a World Heritage Monument, is principally devoted to the works of Dom Martin, and has been visited by millions of people from all over the world for more than several decades, it would certainly seem that the above criteria have been met.

- Martha Hamlett (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)
This article is about an author who may not be notable enough for inclusion. She has published one children's book through a vanity press. Richard Cavell (talk) 06:26, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Doesn't appear to meet WP:CREATIVE. Matt (Talk) 07:20, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. No awards, abysmal Amazon sales rank (#473,810 in Books) and no reviews in notable publications.- Mgm|(talk) 09:25, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

- Delete. I very rarely advocate deletion of published authors, but this seems entirely meritless self-promotion: the page creator is the 'aspiring illustrator and photographer' mentioned in the article. The text is largely lifted from the publisher's site. Espresso Addict (talk) 16:48, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
- Delete reading self-written poems to toddlers does not make you notable. abf /talk to me/ 10:58, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
- Heather Sharfeddin (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)
does not meet notability criteria. see WP:CREATIVE Dlabtot (talk) 02:12, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- Weak keep per [2] and notices in Publisher's Weekly. Minimally notable. JJL (talk) 02:43, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- No one is disputing the fact that Heather Sharfeddin authored some books which are for sale on Amazon. However, that is not a valid notability criteria according to WP:CREATIVE. Dlabtot (talk) 15:52, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:23, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
