Since biographies are potentially under the purview of almost all WikiProjects, it is important that we work in tandem with these projects. Also, when seeking collaboration on articles, don't neglect to approach WikiProjects that are part of the geographical region your subject is/was in.
Increase the exposure of our work group by nominating our articles for their Portal FA and DYKs... Specific discipline portals are listed in that section.

Directions for expanding any division belowEdit
The general outline and collection has been started, but if you would like to expand and organize a discipline, here's what you do. Right below the page heading for the discipline insert this: {{subst:Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Work groups/Division banner}} and save. This will put a rough outline together for you and then you can edit it to conform to your area. See Writers and critics below for an example. If your project grows large enough where it's taking up a good portion of this page, you should probably move it to a subpage of this page.
You might also want to make a Members section for people to join your specific area!
Tagging articlesEdit
Any article related to this work group should be marked by adding |a&e-work-group=yes
to the {{WPBiography}} project banner at the top of its talk page. This will automatically place it into Category:Arts and entertainment work group articles. Articles can be assessed for priority within this work group by using the |a&e-priority=
parameter. See Template:WikiProject Biography/doc for detailed instructions on how to use the banner.

Visual artsEditRichard MarazanoEditAfDs for this article:
I have multiple reasons for putting this in an AfDD. 1. The person who wrote most of the article has the username Marazano. If you check him on the French Wikipedia, you will see that his user page says that he is an author. 2. For me, it fails WP:GNG, because the vast majority of the article only praises him for his writings, and the vast majority of it is unsourced. The only sources are ones confirming he wrote those books, not that they have gotten "critical acclaim" and "positive reviews", like the article states. 3. I have put this on AfDD before, but only 1 person voted (excluding a sockpuppet). Cheers! // 🌶️Jalapeño🌶️ Don't click this link! 14:45, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

AuthorsEditAndrew HarmanEdit
Non-notable author. Article relies on a single unreliable source. UtherSRG (talk) 19:10, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
The Sacrifice (Higson novel)Edit
Notability challenged since 2014. Sources are a combination of primary and user-generated. No showing of SIGCOV. Could possibly be merged to Charlie Higson, along w/ the other books in the series, as a possible AtD. Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 16:51, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Michael Foster (Australian writer)Edit
Fails WP:NAUTHOR. UtherSRG (talk) 15:04, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
David Gerard (author)Edit
None of the sources are about him as a person and I can not find any which do. There are a bunch of passing mentions, there are things about his books, there are quotes from him in various pubs, but nothing that passes the GNG. Guerillero Parlez Moi 20:11, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Celia GreenEdit
No evidence she meets WP:PROF, the "Institute of Psychophysical Research" appears to be an independent organization and she does not seem widely cited in Scholar for her work. - car chasm (talk) 18:02, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
Keep Google Scholar shows a respectable rate of citation for her work on lucid dreaming and out of body experiences. Some of the citing works will of course be agreeing, some just reporting and others disagreeing. But disagreement is not grounds for deletion! It is grounds for keeping because the topic is one of lively debate. Foiled circuitous wanderer (talk) 20:07, 4 June 2023 (UTC) Paul LundeEdit
Does not appear to meet WP:GNG; none of the provided citations offer independent coverage of Lunde, just works by Lunde. Searching the internet, Google Scholar, and my university library I was able to find two reviews of works by Lunde, [10] and [11], but which don't discuss Lunde himself or his role in the works at all. When considering the case for WP:NACADEMIC, both of the reviews I would describe as faint praise for the works, nor is there any evidence of a high h-index despite publishing extensively. One of Lunde's primary outlets has been Aramco World described as follows in an Indiana University paper [12]:
Jack McCullough (author)Edit
Article about a business executive that fails our WP:GNG and WP:INDEPTH criteria. The few reliable sources that are used as refs are just WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS of the subject. Possible WP:PROMO. Recommend WP:SALT. Jamiebuba (talk) 20:53, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
Baruch ChaitEdit
Doesn't appear to pass GNG or NAUTHOR. passing mention in the RS, the other is a blog. Gugrak (talk) 09:34, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
Babak TaghvaeeEdit
Appears to be a non-notable freelance journalist. The only substantial coverage is from a local student newspaper, and it's an interview. The rest of the sources are things he wrote. Fails WP:RS and WP:GNG. Juxlos (talk) 07:34, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
The result was keep. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:55, 6 June 2023 (UTC) Karyl McBrideEdit
Karyl McBride appears to be some random self-help guru. She's definitely not notable beyond her books, and those don't seem too notable either. ~Strawberry of Arctic Circle System (talk) 14:22, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
Meenakshi Faith PaulEdit
Not enough in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG, nor do they meet WP:NSCHOLAR. Onel5969 TT me 13:21, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
Neel BurtonEditAfDs for this article:
The article concerns an academic who does not meet notability guidelines under WP:ACADEMIC JoshuaGrayy (talk) 16:26, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
Maurício Guilherme Silva Jr.Edit
Article fails WP:N, WP:MINIMUM and WP:PROF. None of the source are about the author, let alone being "significant coverage". Also, the creator of this article, has a long history of WP:PAID and WP:PROMOTION and this article is yet another attempt to use WP as a means for promotion. Kacamata! Dimmi!!! 01:09, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
Vincent M. HoltEdit
Biography of a writer, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for writers. The principal notability claim here is that his book exists, which isn't automatically enough in and of itself in the absence of a demonstrable WP:GNG pass for it, but the sourcing isn't getting him over GNG: it consists of one short newspaper blurb from 1885 that verifies the existence of the book without even naming the author at all, and one newspaper article from 2008 that isn't substantively about Vincent Holt or the book, but just glancingly namechecks their existence in the process of being fundamentally about the concept of the same dietary practice that the book was about. So these sources are acceptable but not enough, and he would have to have more than this to actually pass GNG. Bearcat (talk) 17:35, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
Pankaj Choudhary (professor)EditAfDs for this article:
Previous AfD resulted in soft delete, and it was reconstituted. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPROF. Onel5969 TT me 12:45, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 06:42, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
Jelena ĐurovićEdit
This individual lacks notability and more importantly some information seems fabricated. For example, the article claims this individual to be "Vice President of the Jewish Community of Montenegro" but it is not true (the current website contradicts its previous version); ditto for "Chairwoman of OJC SEE". Also, "As a journalist, she works as film and TV critic", however she doesn't work for any notable media outlets, apart from her own blog, which is practically unknown but nevertheless advertised here. Magg17 (talk) 07:02, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
Damn It Ani Barach KahiEdit
Book fails WP:GNG, almost no critical reception, all source book launch info AShiv1212 (talk) 06:53, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
