[edit] Advertisement

This article, as written, seems to me to be an advertisement for the artist's webpage. There are no non WP:SPS sources, so I wonder if it even passes WP:N. I've asked a fellow editor to comment on my opinion. — trlkly 17:55, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

I adjusted the wikilink - I think you meant self-published sources as self-references are when the page discusses wikipedia itself. If I'm wrong, feel free to turn it back. The page does read a bit like an advertisement, but there are two external links that are independent and seem to indicate notability. Also, here is a news story focusing on Ramachandran. It definitely needs cleanup, but the subject does seem to be notable. WLU (talk) 19:36, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

As I said on your talk page, that clarifies things immensely. I was trying to change this to a more standard citation style, and I noticed that there were quite a few WP:SPS (yeah, I get those mixed up), and decided it wasn't worth fixing until more sources were found. I just jumped the gun calling it unnotable, since I've been learning new things about that policy. — trlkly 05:00, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
