Artist, academic. I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing
Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed
Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. " It was deprodded by
User:Lincolnspencer with the following rationale "Deleted reviewers note & added response in Talk Pages". Unfortunately, the creator never followed up improving the article after asking what to do on my talk page (I responded at
User_talk:Lincolnspencer#Proposed_deletion_of_June_Julian). Bottom line: I don't see how she passes either
WP:ARTIST or
WP:PROF. Coverage is in passing; I see no in-depth works about here. Not all academic or artists are notable, and this seems to be the case here. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|

Comment@
Piotrus: you're right... I was looking at claims from article. I may have been hasty and I'm sorry for that. New Media does have a good point about her being a vibrant contributor. Wouldn't that be an academic notability keep then? Has anyone searched her on lexis nexus? I can try looking thete on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Megalibrarygirl: I tried Google Scholar, I see no profile, and only one article from 1997 with 11 citations that seems to match her name and field of work (
[1]). If what is at
June_Julian#Published_works is her best selection of works, I doubt she comes close to
WP:PROF. If you are in humanities and you are listing conference papers as your best "published" works, it's not a good sign... --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|

Let me search Lexis Nexus after Labor Day. I'll have access by Wednesday at the latest. If I find nothing, I'm ok with changing my vote.

Delete I agree with nominator. Coverage is very widely spread across different subjects: a show here, a paper on online learning there. I searched "June Julian museum" and could not find a museum with an online listing of her works. Nothing in Google Books. Notable artists are in books. I did find this link indicating that she is in the
member's juried group exhibition at the Drawing Center, which is not really high profile show. Artists with as big a career as the Wiki page would have us believe are not usually in member's shows... She is no doubt a vibrant and professional contributor to art and art education, but I don't think she's a notable one. If kept, the article will hopefully be transformed from its current promotional resumé-speak.

Delete per nom and New Media Theorist; I simply can't find extensive coverage...or any coverage for that matter. Non-notable as of this moment.

Delete. The article claims that her work is in permanent collections of museums, and in particular sites two, one of which is the Noyes museum. But on the Noyes museum site I could find only a brochure for a workshop and a press release for a temporary group exhibit in which the subject's name was one of several listed at the end in a sentence about "also appearing in..." So to me, this is a failure of verification that means we should apply stricter scrutiny to everything in the article, a standard that I don't think it stands up to. I don't see any independent and verifiable evidence of passing
