Seems to fail WP:GNG with very few reliable sources about the person. I also get an eery feeling that this might be self-promo, as all IPs are from the Netherlands (where he is based) while there is no article in Dutch. The Banner talk 20:33, 22 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - I agree that the article itself has many statements for which there are no sources whatsoever, and does not particularly come across as WP:NEUTRAL. That being said, after some searching, I did find a few sources (e.g. New Indian Express, Telegraph India and TL magazine), though most of these are articles seem to be interviews. He does seem to have some possibly notable works, e.g. BM horse chair, Horse stool in V&A and Chair in Stedelijk Museum. The reason I put this as a comment, is because I am not knowledgeable enough about designers to know if these are actually passing WP:ARTIST, but wanted to share what I found.

  • My point for this nomination is that it is a BLP, so sources should be about the person. The Banner talk 17:40, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • @The Banner: Sure, that is why I put in those sources about him. I wanted to add the works, because they can count towards WP:ARTISTS, specifically under "4. The person's work (or works) has: (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.", so the works are still relevant to the BLP.

• Keep I do know design and he does check out! He passes GNG for artists. He's probably more of a household design name in the Netherlands, but, I do consider him notable enough for inclusion, the article just needs work. I'll drop some citations on the talk page. Missvain (talk) 04:28, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also dropping a few reliable secondary sources on the talk page. Missvain (talk) 04:46, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep He definitely meets WP:ARTIST#4, with works in the Victoria and Albert Museum, Stedelijk Museum and Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Having work in major museums like those strongly suggests that SIGCOV exists. I have done some edits on the article, and will do more - including adding Missvain's sources, and also checking the long lists of sources and external links in the article, some of which should probably be included as inline references.
