- Hello @ Oaktree b, Keith Lam Yan-kit mentioned in source 7 refers the same person in here. You could also have a look at the source 3. In Hong Kong, it is common for people to name themselves with their English Given Name (Keith) + Surname (Lam) and to skip the Cantonese Given Name (Yan Kit), for reference: Hong Kong Name , thank you!

DeleteBriefly discussed here [1]. Article now is more of a list than anything about the person, I don't see notability. Oaktree b ( talk) 16:26, 15 February 2024 (UTC)- Hello @
Oaktree b, in the book
Games and Narrative: Theory and Practice, the work created by Keith Lam (artist) is one of the reference the author used for defining the context of an art practice. However, Lam who won the honorary mention in
Prix Ars Electronica is one of the few artists to be honored with the prize in Hong Kong so should be considered as notable. Reference to the Wikipedia article, it is one of the best known and longest running yearly prizes in the field of electronic and interactive art, computer animation, digital culture and music. Thank you!

- Comment: South China Morning Post and the Vice article talk about the artist. These interviews
[2],
[3] help... This also talks about him
[4]. I'll change my vote, I think we have enough to be notable.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗ plicit 12:32, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
- Keep although obviously promotional and resume-like. Per Oaktree b, seems enough here that notability exists. Randy Kryn ( talk) 13:42, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I removed the over-the-top ref-bombed CV material from the main space. The article is still WP:PROMO full of art speak malarkey. -- WomenArtistUpdates ( talk) 02:24, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
