Thi has been tagged for notability since 2006. It has some coverage, and a French-language article, but I couldn't establish that he definitely meets WP:BIO or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 15:53, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - The Charbonnier article certainly needs expansion and more thorough referencing, a task with which I will assist. Jean‐Philippe Charbonnier was a significant French photojournalist and a senior staffer at Réalités, which ranks him alongside Henri Cartier-Bresson and other mid-century photography greats, and continued a long career during which his documentation of events in France and internationally forms an invaluable historical record (included in the Biblioteque Nationale and elsewhere. His bio is included on the World Health Organisation site[5] (for whom he worked in the 1960s), and also on the World Press Photo site[6]. His work was chosen by Edward Steichen for The Family of Man exhibition seen worldwide by more than 9 million people. There is an article on him in the French Wikipedia, but his contribution to photojournalism is of importance also to English-speakers that warrants inclusion here.
His work continues to be collected and recognised with solo exhibitions, and inclusion in many important group shows, the most recent (see:[http://www.photography-now.com/artist/jean-philippe-charbonnier]) have been:
