<nowiki>@Robert McClenon and Sulfurboy:</nowiki/> Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals says "Authors, editors, journalists, filmmakers, photographers, artists, architects, and other creative professionals: The person's work (or works) has: ... (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums." What more do I need to show? --Montwriter (talk) 21:27, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I went through it and I think it's good to go. Moving to mainspace. Montanabw(talk) 17:33, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Montanabw and Montwriter: As I said before, no argument from me that Harris is notable. I still have problems with some of the references and note, in particular, that ref 1 (now moved into the lede against the usual policy that the lede summarizes info with citations in the body so should not contain citations itself) is just an image with no context that supports the statement best known for his life-sized stuffed and upholstered female figures which I had copied from the body in order to make a more conventional lede.

But now the article is in mainspace where it belongs and other editors may be able to contribute to it. Does it need a maintenance tag? Too dependent on local coverage, too dependent on primary sources? It's not yet verified that the references support the statements they are attached to? — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 18:44, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
