Why this page
I am collaborating on an article about a NY based art collective named GH avisualagency. The orginal article was submitted to Wikipedia on 14 December 2005 and was immediately nominated as an AfD by User:Keithlaw. The voting process came to an abrupt hault and was closed one day prematurely by admin User:Brookie. Although the supposed reasons for deletion were due to sock puppets (WP:SOCK), there has been no evidence presented as proof of these accusations.

This space is used for drafts of major article revisions as well as discussions and a workspace for Wikipedians to help write the GH avisualagency article. I do not check the talk page associated with this sub page, so people can talk amongst themselves about this page.

GH avisualagency: description
GH avisualagency (also known as Graphic Havoc and GHava) is an art collective working in design, direction and strategy, based in Brooklyn, NY. Founded in Atlanta, GA in 1994, the group of five artists works within the overlap of fine art and commercial art to explore the collaborative process and its effects on both art and commercial projects. Each member pursues his own individual artistic goals and brings this experience to bear on collaborative endeavors within the framework of the group.

GH avisualagency was cited as one "of 23 groundbreaking New York studios and individuals" in "Infiltrate: The Front Lines of the New York Design Scene"; Alexander Gelman, Nic Musolino, Helen Walters (2004); Gingko Press. ISBN 9063690444

Their cover art for Prefuse 73's album "Surrounded By Silence" was included in the book "The Greatest Album Covers of All Time"; Grant Scott, Barry Miles, Johnny Morgan (October 2005); Collins & Brown. ISBN: 1843403013
