Nothing to assert notability per WP:CREATIVE.  Ja Ga  talk 20:46, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - there are a lot of Andrew Hawes about; I have tried adding "artist" or "Australia" to the search term, but I can't find anything to indicate notability, certainly not to the standard of WP:CREATIVE. JohnCD (talk) 21:11, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete There is no evidence that the subject meets WP:CREATIVE. The article reads suspiciously like a cut'n'paste and may breach WP:COPYVIO. -- Mattinbgn\talk 04:48, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unreferenced, notability not established. WWGB (talk) 04:59, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't understand why you are trying to delete this? My father inlaw is an artist and I am trying to get his biography on wikipedia. I asked my Andrew to write a biography so I could put it on wikepedia - this is not a spamming excercise! Please tell me what IU need to do in order for this to be accepted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ggavalas (talk • contribs) 12:19, 18 April 2009 (UTC)  — Ggavalas (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and in order to have an article a person needs to be notable enough, as explained in Notability (people) and (for an artist} WP:CREATIVE. Also, if you are related to the subject, you have a Conflict of Interest and should not be writing about him. JohnCD (talk) 12:37, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
