Began as a WP:COI article. With the creator now blocked, it's being kept up, basically as a WP:NOTWEBHOST violation, as an ongoing résumé, in step with the artist's personal bio, a WP:BLP with no independent sources, by user Mweisbeck, who presumably is, or is associated with, the artist.

 * Delete The creator Surfacegrafik was blocked for spam in 2015 and the article fails GNG. – Cupper 52 Discuss! 17:55, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete to be here you need one or more of these things from WP:GNG and WP:NARTIST: articles about your work in multiple publications; books about your work; your work is in multiple museum collections; your artistic colleagues think you are soemthing very special and have declared this, or, you have invented a technique that transformed the practice. None of these are true for this artists.--- Possibly (talk) 18:05, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails GNG, not enough sources. GooeyMitch (talk) 18:48, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete due to non-notability. The fact that the creating user was later blocked is irrelevant. The person in question's design commissions seem to be run-of-the-mill jobs, e.g. designing a stall at a festival. Otherwise fails general notability and his role at university does not seem significant. Does not appear to meet any other criteria, or at least this hasn't been established in the article or existing sources. PK650 (talk) 05:24, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
 * To be clear, I didn't mean the creator's block is relevant. I meant that with the account under which the WP:NOTWEBHOST activity began having ceased that activity (the block happening to be the reason), the activity continued anyway under a different COI account.

 * Delete per WP:TNT, WP:COPYVIO, and WP:CREATIVE. First off, much of the article has been translated incompletely from German. This could require extensive work to fix the list of German place-names. This also indicates that it was written first, partly translated, and then cut-and-pasted to Wikipedia. Secondly, he has not exhibited in major art capitals. I agree with the points about what we're looking for by . Where are the major commissions, coffee table books, or works in notable art museums? I don't see anything other than a hard-working designer, one of many professionals. That does not make him notable, nor does he deserve an article in English Wikipedia.
