I declined speedy deletion because the article asserts that his work is "well known". Still a non-notable artist for our purposes, though.  Sandstein  20:00, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

My fathers work has been notable in our family unit for th past 40 years. He is very well known in our community. I feel the article is still premature though, but I will be working on it daily. Please reply asap —Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkusKingJR (talk • contribs) 22:01, 7 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:N. Tempodivalse (talk) 01:26, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Unless a particular notability according to our guidelines is provided - being an artist for 40 years is not enough to gain inclusion into Wikipedia - think of the millions of similar articles that could be started. I also note some conflict of interest in the reply by Markus Jnr - probably well meaning but not good enough here I'm sorry.-- VS  talk 03:50, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

what are these notable guideliness? —Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkusKingJR (talk • contribs) 20:28, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Marcus - please click on this link (also given to you above) to see how we determine notability - and whilst you are checking check out our guide to Conflict of Interest. Best wishes-- VS talk 03:48, 9 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - notability has not been established through reliable sources, and in searching, I was unable to find any coverage about this artist. -- Whpq (talk) 20:21, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

I have read the article on notability and understand what you all mean. Could he not be considered for future notability? I strongly feel he will within the next 5months. --MarkusKingJR (talk) 16:47, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I have spoken with my father and we have agreed to delete the article for a further date tbc if he qualifies for notability. Is that ok? and how do I do it?--MarkusKingJR (talk) 16:57, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
