Asha Zero

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article is about a pseudonymous South African visual artist. The article was a recreation of a (speedy?)deleted version and (single issue) author subsequently took it upon themselves to remove a PROD template. Article is sourced to a blog and several gallery catalogues, none of which I would describe as reliable journalistic coverage. The only thing I can find that isn't a press release or Asha taliing about himself, is evidence of a profile in Issue 4 of Kolaj Magazine. Not sufficient to meet WP:GNG or WP:ARTIST notability criteria. Sionk (talk) 19:54, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete: I added a reference to the article 10 days ago but was too undecided to put a view on this Afd. As well as that reference, there are some other mentions in the Cape Times, including one where I can see Asha Zero being used as a comparative for someone else. However, on thinking/looking again, I don't think there is enough independent sourcing out there to establish WP:ARTIST notability. AllyD (talk) 05:22, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
