This article was created by Kreckler. It was speedy deleted under WP:CSD a few days ago, but Kreckler recreated it and asserts some notability in the text. I don't see any actual notability, nor do I see any actual verifiable, sources. It's likely a prod tag will be removed, so I'm formally nominating it for deletion.

 * Keep. Keckler seems notable - he has exhibited internationally, see e.g. for info, and has been written about in Artlink magazine. However, article needs improvement, in particular sourcing. Hal peridol 02:32, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. A couple of mentions in the mainstream art press, albeit reviews of group shows, and a minor award is probably just enough to meet the notability threshold. He's safely over it if it can be confirmed that his work is in the major collections stated in the article.--Ethicoaestheticist 17:48, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Confirmed that he has a work in the collection of the National Gallery of Australia. Link added to article.--Ethicoaestheticist 18:14, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
