[edit] Bbw art

This article provides no context- it it talking about porn, fine art or something else- there are no examples given. Google is a little more informative, is seems to be some sort of neolgism describing amateur art featuring large women. Non-encyclopedic, delete--nixie 03:51, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

Article moved to BBW art as that's its name. jnothman talk 05:30, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete because it isn't an art form, just a fancy name for BBW porn (pictures, explicit drawings and sketches). If you want to an article about large women in art, perhaps it should go in Rubenesque, which currently redirects to BBW. -- Kjkolb 11:06, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Is it just me, or is that a bit off? A reference to Rubens, and the historical depiction of the fuller figure, to a term coined by modern-day fat fetishists? It's a bit tawdry :-/ - Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 21:39, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete nugatory treatment of an art movement viewed from the wrong end of the historical telescope, as Kjkolb notes. Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 15:06, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, and redirect Rubenesque. Jkelly 17:19, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Comment: Rubenesque currently redirects to BBW, so that would be a double redirect. -- Kjkolb 03:45, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, has no relevance and not encyclopaedic Stifle 18:59, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Rewrite. Get someone who knows what they're writing about to put together an article at Rubenesque, focusing on the historical aspect of it. Redirect this to Rubenesque, and add a paragraph, no more, on the modern 'interpretation' of Rubenesque that is BBW art. I will also support a delete move. Saberwyn 23:32, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unencyclopedic. *drew 02:52, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
