[edit] cleanup
Ok, i propose to take out the aerosol safety and removal simply because its not a "type" of graffiti. Maybe move this to the graffiti main page. Also I want to clear-up the sections. subway art, freight train art, vandalism, bombing, political.etc. I also propose to move every single bit of graffiti history to the graffiti main page. This is a page strictly for "types" of graffiti.Maybe keep a ultra-breif historical overview for each type.Nothing more.Ostione 18:13, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] The 'neo-nazi' defaced cemetary photo
This photograph has no reference in the article, the claims in the subtitle cannot be established. Where was this photo taken? Who by? And what purpose does it serve in this article? Jachin 10:41, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
- It shows that grafiti is sometimes used to deliberately offend individuals. Jackpot Den 17:49, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] stencil art
Hy! Can someone create an article about stencils? I've made a few pictures of stencils (In the german wikipedia they're called "Pochoir" - as in France too) and in the english wikipedia you've got much more information about an article about that style! I'm not even sure if de:Pochoir / fr:Pochoir is the same as stencil art. But as described in the article, it must be the same! The thing that makes me doubt ist, that I Can't see stencilled graffiti (or how these are called) on the picture in the article about Pochoir (in the german wp.) :-? But whatever. I'll try to improve the german article, and I would appreciate if someone starts an english article too! At least, that I can "steal" some information from here ;-) -- Otto Normalverbraucher 19:06, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
- Eye eye, cap'n, I'm on the case. There are many helpful links on banksy's site.
EDIT : the site you're looking for is here buddy. Stencilling Jackpot Den 17:49, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bomb London and British army
I have removed:
- "The British Army notoriously had to respond to the popularity of anti-war graffiti website Bomblondon.com with the photographic exhibition showing what military graffiti says in and about Iraq in 2005 called "THE WRITING ON THE WALL"."
because I have no idea what it is talking about. The website seems to be a collection of pictures of quite cool actions and very poor fake graffiti and a critism of Banksy that is to poor to mention. If you whant this in please provide ref's and more discription what Bomblondon did and why the Millitary had to repond with the THE WRITING ON THE WALL exibition.--JK the unwise 10:40, 24 February 2006 (UTC) Links to information on the Writing on the wall exibition.Press release from British army(PDF)Royal United Services Institute review(PDF). I see no evidence at all that the exibition is related to the bomblondon website.--JK the unwise 11:03, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
