It doesn't really matter that you are the artist's manager, and have been asked by him to make changes to the article. An article's subject is not entitled to control the contents of his article; in other words, Wikipedia is meant to be an encyclopedia, not a hosting service. (Frankly, "Shakey Graves Is A Gentleman From Texas" is not encyclopedic information; removal of all information from the article and replacing it with a single sentence can be regarded as vandalism.)

As for the image File:Shakey Graves. Photo by Glen Brown.jpg which you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, this is a valuable addition to Wikipedia, but I note that it is a work by a professional photographer and appears on various places on the Internet, such as here:. In such a case, Wikipedia needs to make sure that the image has indeed been published under a free license; see the donating copyrighted material guideline for further details. You have marked the image as under the CC-BY-SA license. This means that anybody can use and publish the image, create derivative works, and use it or the derivative works commercially. The only restrictions are that the original author is credited, and that any work that makes use of the licensed image must itself be under the same license. (While there are other acceptable licenses, they all must allow third-party use, modification/creation of derivative works, and commercial use.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 19:51, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
