Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tom of Finland stamps
Existence of coverage doesn't automatically establish notability. Artists of stamps of the United States|Stamps featuring the work of notable artists are commonplacehttp://www.questroyalfineart.com/blog/2015/01/throwback-stamps-1960s-american-painting-series/https://arago.si.edu/exhibit_183_10.htmlhttps://uspsconnection.com/files/March2012LP.pdf, and those commemorating notable nationals of the issuing country are ''|routine''; they are not otherwise the subjects of articles, nor should they be. The coverage of this stamp set was |brief and PR-driven (once when announced, again when released... and none at all since) and based entirely on the item's novelty. That would be a remarkably low standard for independent notability, also justifying separate articles about ''Astonishing X-Men'' #51 (http://www.advocate.com/arts-entertainment/comics-and-graphic-novels/2012/06/19/get-early-look-how-marvel-comics-depicts Advocate http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/news/marvel-comics-hosts-first-gay-wedding-in-astonishing-x-men-20120522 Rolling Stone http://ew.com/article/2012/05/22/x-men-gay-wedding-the-view/ EW), the Harvey Milk stamp (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2014/05/22/harvey-milk-honored-with-postage-stamp/ WaPo http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/05/29/harvey-milk-stamp-anti-gay-group_n_5412295.html HuffPo http://www.washingtonblade.com/2014/03/19/story-behind-harvey-milk-stamp/ Blade), ''Star Trek: Gay XXX Parody'' (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/star-trek-xxx-parody_us_58138de4e4b0990edc30d8b3 HuffPo https://www.inverse.com/article/22993-star-trek-beyond-porn-parody Inverse http://attitude.co.uk/star-trek-gets-the-x-rated-gay-porn-parody-treatment-watch/ Attitude), and any of countless other relatively minor items receiving fleeting attention (just to cite a few similar items that happen to be visible from where I'm sitting). None of Laaksonen's ''other'' (much more important) work apparently needs separate articles, |why do these three stamps? It makes more sense to '''merge''' and cover this in the context of the artist's legacy
