Věra Vovsová

Hello Highschoolpuppettier. I don't think Vovsová is particularly notable in the context of Czech art. I can't find any reliable mentions of her online or in the books on Czech art. A catalogue of her works has been published by a local gallery in Pardubice, but that's all. The sources you've added to the article cannot be considered reliable in Wikipedia terms (it is a blog and the website estránky.cz, where anyone can buy a domain). Do you have any better sources? --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 14:54, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Everything in the Wikipedia mainspace should be reliably referenced and all subjects and topics should be notable. I'm quite familiar with Czech art history, but this is a new name to me. Of course, it doesn't mean that Vovsová doesn't meet our notability requirements, but - trust me - I've checked carefully many possible news and books search engines. The result is pretty poor. Your article is very nice, but I'm afraid that you picked a not notable topic. Please, don't be discouraged ... I'll give you more time to look for better sources. Best regards. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 15:20, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vovsová is in my opinion a classical example of a regionally known personality, but it is not enough to meet our notability criteria (see WP:ARTIST). --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 15:27, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, please, don't forget that the sources must be independent of the article's subject. It means that personal documents or correspondence cannot back up articles alone. Thanks for your understanding. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 15:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry. It´s just hard to make a new page on Wikipedia considering it has information on almost everything.

It isn't so hard, there are thousands of missing important topics ... Recently, I'm trying to develop this list with my limited skills. Each one of the buildings deserves a stand-alone article :) --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 15:43, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
