Talk:Cornish Art Colony

Response to request for speedy deletion
I've expanded my rewriting of the article's original text, and removed parts that were extensive quotes of the references. – Wdfarmer (talk) 23:08, 7 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I've further winnowed the text, mostly to reduce the amount of copied content. It is recommended that one not begin with copied text; subsequent revision tends to be cosmetic, and offers slight disguise for copyright violations. That said, it's a worthy subject, with much to be added re: history and artists. JNW (talk) 23:22, 7 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I notice it's now been tagged for notability and sources. I don't think either of these concerns should be an issue--there are numerous sources and evidence of notability available. Given time to scratch up the material, I'd like to flesh this out. Others are welcome, too. JNW (talk) 23:33, 7 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for getting thst started. I don't usually create articles, but today I discovered a print I have of Illusions by Henry Brown Fuller.  When I went to Wikipedia to learn more about it, I found no article on him, and so I created one as a stub.  That led to my creating an article on the Cornish Art Colony to which he belonged, rather than just embedding a link to the source material.  Now I see that more is required to create an article than just paraphrasing its sources. – Wdfarmer (talk) 23:57, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
