Does not seem to fit WP:ARTIST Non-dropframe (talk) 21:00, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Wow, that was fast; won't even give me half hour's headstart? Eugene (talk) 21:01, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I didn't want to speedy your article but I still don't think it passes WP:ARTIST. I thought I would post it here for discussion. Non-dropframe (talk) 21:14, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Two different mainstream museum showings, mention in a trade publication, and a lengthy interview with Canon Cameras regarding an interesting new technique doesn't cut it? WP:ARTIST lists one possible avenue to notability as "The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique." Given the Canon interview and tutorial concentrating on a new technique, doesn't that qualify? Eugene (talk) 21:10, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * You make a very good point. I withdraw my deletion proposal. This is a very interesting technique and if I ever have a huge amount of time on my hands, I'll have to try it myself. I guess now my concern is WP:COI but I won't pursue it. I apologize if I've wasted your time Non-dropframe (talk) 21:36, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm mindful of the the COI; it's why I didn't make a big deal out of the technique to begin with. I didn't want to come across as excessiely promotional.  Thanks though.  Given your retraction, do I just removed the tag or will someone else close this? Eugene (talk) 23:22, 21 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep per above discussion, he seems to meet WP:ARTIST. Bearian (talk) 00:39, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
