The result was keep. It seems that there is a consensus that the additional sourcing and content satisfies notability requirements (as well as collateral CSD concerns). With thanks to @Megalibrarygirl: for her rescue work. (non-admin closure) Nosebagbear (talk) 18:42, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Doesn't seem to be a notable artist. I did some searching, but all I could find was either cursory coverage, posts on social media, and one minor local-interest piece. No significant discussion of the artist or her impact.
I almost nominated this for CSD under A7, but the fact that the author linked a few sources pointed to the fact that they were at least trying to claim Bernadine's notability. cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 18:18, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

- I'm going to disagree on the WP:A1 - A1 is for when there's no context given to identify the subject, and the article clearly says who the subject is. But I'm definitely behind an A7 deletion since I'm not the only person who thinks this doesn't claim notability. cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 19:56, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- Well it didn't really say who the subject is and why is she notable. All the article says is that she's born in 1940. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 19:58, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

- Delete no indication she passes any of the notability guidelines for artists.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:08, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep She seems to be a very well known artist in Barbados with over a 40 year career in the arts. She painted a mural in the West wing of parliament, planned their 50th anniversary of independence art exhibition where she presented the Prime minister with a portrait and more. There's good coverage over time in different sources. Caribbean bios are normally difficult to source since a lot of info seems to be offline, but here we have good coverage of her from 2011 on. I cleaned up the article and added the sources. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 23:43, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
