Michael Pierre Price: The article is mainly referenced to primary sources from a group exhibition called "Techspressionism", in which he showed an artwork.  An online BEFORE search finds lots of social media, and user-submitted content, and more primary sources.  I found one good news source, [7] but that is not enough to put him over the bar, as what is needed are multiple , independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources.  WP:COI seems evident.

Here's what I found: this source as mentioned, it only describes the subject without anything in detail, this source which reads more like a letter with a youtube embed that is basically an interview (and thus not secondary).  More interviews and profiles, this source about one of his works in addition to a conversation with the subject (fails GNG), another source which also doesn't meets GNG .  I stopped analysing more but others are simply interviews and other non GNG passable sources.

His history with TSR should have some sources--if nothing else we have articles on a fair number of the things he's written.

Talk!  21:15, 9 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete - I am not finding sufficient RS sourcing for this article.  The coverage is mostly local (Arizona) of regional shows.  The artist is not part of any notable collections, nor been part of any notable exhibitions.  There is no reliable sourcing for biographical information presented.  The article is WP:PROMO and fails WP:ARTIST .  I am finding nothing to bring it up to notable.  Sentences like "In 2010 he made the bold decision to leave the gaming industry behind and pursue his new calling as a Techspressionist artist. Combining his technical expertise with artistic vision, he began creating unique and thought-provoking artworks that explore the relationship between technology and human expression." are not encyclopedic.  -- WomenArtistUpdates ( talk ) 01:52, 11 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - I fail to see how the article subject meets GNG, and there is no indication the artist meets the notability criteria for visual artists, NARTIST.  There is one good source, AZ Sun, but the other one mentioned above by Hobit is a two paragraph modified press release announcing the show, it's a very week source.  Netherzone ( talk ) 17:22, 11 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hello Netherzone .  I am the subject of this article and I understand that I have a conflict of interest, but I would like to work through the process to fix the issues here.  I am in uncharted waters with regards to how Wikipedia operates, but I do believe I have substantive sources on both the game design side of my career and also for my art career.  What I have done in my 30 years as a game designer is much greater than my art career, but I am hopeful that there is a good case to be made on my behalf for me as an artist and game designer.  However, let me say that my sources are strong for the game industry as I have reviewed the Wikipedia pages of past colleagues this week.  I would appreciate any guidance you might have in how best to move forward.  I have new sources that are not currently being used in my article, but I don't know how to present them and who to present them to, since it looks like I should not make edits here on my own because of the conflict of interest.  Thank you for your attention and help.  ConradJens ( talk ) 20:50, 13 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] ConradJens , Thank you for your message and for disclosing that you are the subject of the article, welcome to Wikipedia.  You are free to post on this AfD discussion.  Just so you know, in compliance with WP:COI you should not edit articles about yourself or close associates or family (other than minor corrections and things like punctuation fixes), and if you create any new articles they should be run through Articles for Creation, rather than created directly in article space.  COI editing is discouraged because introduces systemic bias into the encyclopedia, as well as potenital original research and non-neutral material, and promotional content .  If you have sources to share about your work in the game industry, post those references and links here for assessment.  At this time the article only has one decent source, the Arizona Sun article.  A general rule of thumb is there should be three solid references that are significant coverage published in reliable sources that are fully independent of the subject to definitively establish notability.  Good sources would be newspaper articles (not press releases, calendar listings or the like); reviews about your work, games, or publications in reliable sources (not blogs, social media, or primary souces like user-submitted content, interviews, etc.); book chapters or significant coverage in journal articles about you or your work.  These should be independent, not written by your or your close associates or colleagues.  Wikipedia is interested in what neutral others have said about you and/or your work in reliable sources, not what one says about themself.  This is how the integrity of the encyclopedia is maintained.  Hope that helps.  Netherzone ( talk ) 00:23, 14 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Netherzone , I would like to address the issues in two stages.  I'd like to first deal with any of the source problems with my game design career that have been brought up.  And then afterward in separate comments I will work on providing more sources for my art career.  One thing I am baffled by is the complete removal of my design work at Coleco.  I have sources for this so this needs to be addressed.  First off - TSR.  I worked at TSR from 1980-1983.  Dungeons & Dragons Expert Rulebook ISBN: 0-935696-29-6 copyright 1980/1 (Credit inside front cover) https://www.americanroads.us/DandD/DnD_Expert_Rules_Cook.pdf (pdf included to show my credit) https://www.legrog.org/biographies/michael-price (this source demonstrates game design credits for Gamma and products and the french translations that I worked on for the French version of D&D) And legrog.org is source reference [1] on The Cleansing War of Garik Blackhand Wikipedia page.  https://web.archive.org/web/20050122225806/http://www.pen-paper.net/rpgdb.php? op=showcreator&creatorid=3085 (an additional source showing some of my credits while at TSR.) pen-paper.net is an external link mentioned on Patrick Lucien Price and Lawrence Schick Wikipedia pages.  ps://ia802909.us.archive.org/4/items/Space_Gamer_42/Space_Gamer_42.pdf (this is the review article of They've Invaded Pleasantville which is source reference [2] on They've Invaded Pleasantville Wikipedia page and the review mentions Michael Price as the game designer.) The copyrights of the products I worked on establish my timeframe as a game designer at TSR.  https://www.mobygames.com/company/7532/indigo-moon-productions-inc/ (this source demonstrates most of the games that Indigo Moon Productions developed and back up the statement on my Wikipedia page.) Additionally, mobygames.com is an accepted resource for Wikipedia pages of a number game industry individuals.  In particular, mobygames.com is source reference [2] for game designer Lawrence Schick who is a former colleague on mine.  https://rawg.io/games/dragon-dice (this source demonstrates that Indigo Moon Productions was the developer of the Dragon Dice game for Interplay.) As for Coleco game design references, I present the following sources.  Michael Price - MobyGames (again this an accepted resource on a number of Wikipedia pages related to the game industry.) I believe that these sources address the issues brought up for the game design section and also establishes a solid foundation for keeping the article on Michael Pierre Price.  Addressing the issues with the art career section will follow in the next few days.  Thank you for your attention.  ConradJens ( talk ) 16:50, 18 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  The article is a mess, but I agree with Hobit .  Much of it could be/should be deleted, particularly the WP:PROMO parts, but there are sufficient sources for a stub.  -- Jaireeodell ( talk ) 21:48, 13 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep – The two sources Hobit noted are good enough to establish notability.  TLA tlak 03:59, 16 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Question - I have a sincere question to the experienced editors or watchers.  I may have missed some guideline changes about notability criteria for BLPs – things do change quickly around here – but I can't find anything about changes to GNG or NARTIST.  It's always been my understanding that at least THREE solid sources that are independent, significant coverage, and published in a reliable sources (national or international being preferred over local) were required.  Q: Is one good-quality local source, and one local press release/calendar event all it takes now to establish the notability of a person?  Netherzone ( talk ) 15:33, 16 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hello, Netherzone , This question might warrant a talk page discussion on the pertinent policy page.  But my understanding about the "law of Three" (that's my term, not Wikipedia's), is that editors in AFD frequently ask for the best three reliable sources (sometimes out of dozens included in the article) as a way of gauging whether or not a subject is notable.  It's not a policy guideline or recommendation, it comes from a User essay, User:RoySmith/Three best sources .  But it's a valid question to ask to help AFD discussion focus on what's important.  Unfortunately, over time, it has been misunderstood by some editors as being a policy rule but it's just a shorthand to help editors come to a decision on whether or not sufficient sourcing exists and to cut through refspam on some articles.  But, by contrast, our BLPPROD guide only requires one reliable source to be preesnt on an article to prevent deletion.  L iz Read!  Talk!  19:21, 16 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you @ Liz !  I guess I'm still a bit confused; I understand it applies to BLPPROD.  Could you please, when you have a moment, clarify if that means that GNG and/or NARTIST is met by only one reliable source?  (The reason I'm asking here is I'm considering withdrawing the nom if that is the case.)

They don't change my view, as they are as you say just "credits".  Yes, they show you worked on these projects, but what we are looking for is what is described at WP:GNG , which is basically in-depth coverage by reliable sources, like multiple paragraphs written in a book or a reputable newspaper.  Elspea756 ( talk ) 20:47, 21 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I agree that the sources provided by ConradJens do little to better the case for meeting WP:GNG .

In the same way that WP does not consider IMDb a reliable source to establish notability for actors/film industry professionals, so not so sure about these.  As part of a WP:BEFORE , per WP guidelines and RSP, a search for game industry reliable sources, but unfortunately did not get any results.  It's clear that you did this work, but what I can't find is significant coverage of your role in these works as analyzed by independent industry experts to fulfill GNG.  I know it's disappointing, and I'm sorry for that, but what is needed are more than mentions.  Agree with @ Elspea756 above.

It is on page 35 of this 48 page pdf , numbered as page 31 in the upper right of the page.  It is 5 paragraphs that say nothing about Michael Price other than that they are the designer of this game.  This does not provide significant coverage of Michael Price (see WP:SIGCOV ).  Jaireodell asks if this would satisfy WP:CREATIVE #3 which says says "significant or well-known work ... must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews."  No, this does not show that They've Invaded Pleasantville is a significant and well-known work, and this is a single review, not multiple independent reviews.  My advice remains: WP:TNT and put in the effort to start over in user space.  If there is a decent article that could be made on this topic, I'd be happy to see it, but if one is possible it is currently buried under so much unsourced self-promotion like "Leveraging the experience gained with 3D immersive entertainment" etc that I am not seeing it.

Why is Phoenixmag not reliable?  How are 4 paragraphs of coverage purely on the topic not "in depth"?  [10] is also quite in-depth, I've no idea why it's marked otherwise.

Hobit ( talk ) 21:36, 29 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] My reading of the Phoenixmag piece is that it is a promotional for the show.  The Phoenix Flag piece is a friendly interview.  The downtown Devil piece is another puff piece.  None of the three article represent significant analysis of the work, just the artist's ideas about his work.   None of the articles present a NPV or contribute to notability. -- WomenArtistUpdates ( talk ) 22:57, 29 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you for creating the source table, @ WomenArtistUpdates . This paper: [12] is a a journal article written by the subject of the article. It does not contribute to notability, so that should be changed in the source table. As to the Phoenix Mag piece, it's a "Preview" for the show which is like a press release. It's promo for his upcoming show. It's not a serious analysis of his work.

In terms of notability the subject is borderline, but the article is essentially a non-neutral autobiography ("In 2010 he made the bold decision to leave the gaming industry behind and pursue his new calling as a Techspressionist artist"), and needs deletion and recreation from the ground up.  Sandstein 10:58, 31 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Pointing out needed edits is not a reason to delete an article (have edited the sentence that concerned you and other encyclopedic language).   Many editors above have reasons to Keep, so this easily fits my essay WP:SHADOWOFKEEP : "If a large percentage of experienced commenting editors find value within an article, category, or the encyclopedia's other forms of transmitting information, then Wikipedia's readers should continue to benefit from that same value".  Randy Kryn ( talk ) 11:11, 31 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] And this is even part of the WP:TNT essay: "When you see this as an argument to delete, don't give up. If you can repair the article in a timely manner, then you've neatly refuted that the article is irreparable. If you can't repair it in a timely manner, then this is the simplest argument to refute at WP:DRV; after all, they said it couldn't be fixed and you fixed it."  BOZ ( talk ) 13:32, 31 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete , per the analyses by WAU and others.  Not seeing a GNG pass here that doesn't require weakening our tolerance of non-independent material.  JoelleJay ( talk ) 02:00, 1 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : the COI, above (although stilted) analysis of the sources, the style of writing makes me prefer a WP:TNT but even after that, I do not see any clear reason for this individual to meet even WP:GNG and being included here.
