Harvey Kurtz

Vanity piece about an artist written about the subject, but probably not speedy-able because there are some (very questionable) assertions of importance. I can only find any sources other than his own website, and so fails WP:GNG. Basa lisk inspect damage⁄berate 15:03, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

I looked up and found Harvey Kurtz on Deviant art website. I also found that he has been mentioned by a Dominatrix on twitter. Looking at the entries for the other fetish artists I see material that could equally be classed as promotional or autobiographical in nature. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harvey Kurtz (talk • contribs) 18:39, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
 * All the content at the Deviant Art website was created by you; the content of that site is user created, and so it's not a reliable source. Neither, for that matter, is twitter. As far as there being other similarly atrocious articles on wikipedia, I would totally agree with you, but that isn't a good reason to keep this one. You need to read the reliable sources guideline. Also, please read WP:Autobiography, and stop using wikipedia to promote yourself. Basa lisk  inspect damage⁄berate 19:11, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
