I do not believe this artist meets WP:CREATIVE. There is a local story on him (Pasco artist finds comfort in painting religious icons), but he is not widely-known. The references in the article are to general and historical references about the type of art (icons) that he makes, but not about the artist himself. Stomme (talk) 15:57, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment I think that WP:ACADEMIC is another guideline that should be checked for this article, considering he practices iconography, which seems more like an academic discipline than a creative one. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 09:44, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Good thought, but in fact what he practises is the 2nd sense of the word (see the article), meaning icon-painting. He is not an academic. If the article stays all these should be changed. Johnbod (talk) 12:48, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Ahh, in light of that Delete per above, failing WP:CREATIVE and WP:N. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 12:58, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
