Draft:Alice Saga

  • Comment: You have to check the references before submitting a draft. The New York Times article does not exist at the provided link. The Bohusläningen article cannot be found at bohuslaningen.se, perhaps because the online archives do not go back that far, but that makes it even more important that the reader gets an exact date. On which date was the article published? (That being said, an article in a small local newspaper will not contribute to the person's notability even if it isn't an interview. But the reference still must be traceable.) The other references show no notability for her. bonadea contributions talk 14:07, 31 March 2026 (UTC)


Alice Saga (born Alice Amorina Lindha Marina Violette Sagum), also known professionally as Lindha Jacobsson and Linda Portman, is a Swedish fine art photographer, poet, and fashion editor.
