  • I don't see evidence that this person meets any of the WP:ARTIST guidelines with the information in the article. She was named in LA Weekly as top 10 emerging artists ten years ago, but that doesn't seem to meet WP:BIO. Gnews is a bit hard to use because of conflicts, but even '"yun bai" artist' picks up nothing. Some of the references don't concur with the article (artslant seems to list fewer galleries.)

  • Keep I added more to recognition for more recent additions since 2010. She joined numerous permanent collections of prestigious art museums in recent years as well as a few university and private collections between 2010 and 2013, and her recent contributions to #YesAllWomen in 2015 have been recognized in various articles about the social movement. Her name is romanized Chinese, so it's a little more common when Googling; for example, there is another Ph.D candidate with many google results and a panda with the name "Bai Yun" (her name backwards). GNews is not a good source because of many missing news results, especially if you compare the search results to her updated CV on her official website and follow her bibliography URLs. I only began writing this entry because her name was on the Wikipedia Asian Month/Women in Red (WiR) redlink list, and Yun Bai is indeed a relevant artist, considering the long history of exhibitions she participated in and articles about her work. Using GNews to verify her notability is a flawed approach and surely part of the reason why English Wikipedia perpetuates the gender information gap and has only nearly 17% of their articles about women. Artslant is not a comprehensive source for seeing all the galleries she's participated in because her CV is more complete (and well cited). Artists that are less mainstream keep better records of their notable mentions and exhibitions to prove their notability, so I added the citation to her website's CV to the Exhibitions title. -- Lenawoo ( talk) 05:30, 28 November 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I found many search results with "Yun Bai Artist" including that (1) her work has exhibited in over six different venues, (2) her work has been reviewed in nine different journals (e.g. LA Weekly's Top 10 emerging artists; New American Paintings, Pacific Edition, No. 67), (3) the Brooklyn Museum found her work notable as well as multiple online publications Amethystdust —Preceding undated comment added 23:38, 2 December 2016 (UTC) reply
