This article is not an "orphan" nor a "stub", but this persistent claims of wiki-editors are a real turn of for any normal contributor such as I am. Ante Vranković (talk) 17:52, 25 March 2014 (UTC)


 * It is unquestionably a stub. The puzzle is why you think there's anything wrong with that. No-one expects a fully-developed article to be written all at once, and many great articles started out as stubs. 118.210.245.214 (talk) 13:51, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

It is not a stub simply because almost nothing more is known about this interesting anonymous art collector, then is already written in this article.Ante Vranković (talk) 15:45, 28 March 2014 (UTC)


 * What you've just said amounts to a confession that the topic is non-notable, because nothing in the article establishes notability. So I wouldn't be surprised if the article gets nominated for deletion soon. (I won't interfere; I'll just watch.)


 * If you want to save the article, questions to prompt you include: How many drawings are there? How much of our knowledge of 18th century Venetian art do we owe to this collector? How widely known is he among people with an interest in Venetian art? Is he referenced in popular culture (Venetian or otherwise)? There is bound to be something more to add.


 * There is also some unencyclopedic content that needs to be rewritten, although that's less of a priority. For example, it is not appropriate to describe people as "grateful". 118.210.245.214 (talk) 16:31, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

The article is notable because it defines the meaning of this pseudonym, and gives basic informations about this collector. It is not known how many drawings were in his collection, nor all the names of the artists he collected: probably it will be known in the future.Ante Vranković (talk) 07:53, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
