• Delete My apologies, I cleaned up "list of painters" yesterday (standardised the entries, renamed it to "list of painters by name" and made "list of painters" the master list (redirecting to other lists)). The former "list of painters" contained a quick list of famous painters, so I thought I'd make a seperate article on that. I understand it's probably redundant and not very objective (as to what constitutes "famous"). Again, my apologies. Hraban 19:44, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
