[edit] Ciaran Shaman
The issue is notability: although the originator is the subject, the article is not written in a promotional way. I gave it a speedy A7 tag; he responded with {{hangon}}, and we had a conversation about notability on the article's talk page, as a result of which I decided to bring it here for more time and more views. The only sources in the article are the subject's web-site and MySpace; Google produces some gallery sites showing his work, but I don't know that world well enough to know if they can be counted as independent sources.JohnCD (talk) 22:03, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

- Delete, seems to fail WP:RS. I couldn't find anything verifiable, either. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 22:10, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Hello, I can scan and send you newspaper cuttings from an exhibition where I was the advertised artist-in-residence as well as magazine covers. I can see your point of view with the web presence as a lot of my work has been published 'underground' and is fairly inaccessable - even I do not have copies of everything that's been independently published, sometimes without my permission. My work with David Icke can be found here: http://www.davidickewasright.com/ I also have produced many one-off commissions for noteable musicians but I try not to advertise this fact for privacy reasons. I understand if this is not yet enough to warrant a wikipedia entry, though undoubtedly one will have to be created in the near future as I gather together more verifiable sources. It just seems a shame to delete it, though as I say I would understand if that's the case. Warm regards. --Merlinamagus (talk) 00:16, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- delete I've searched around on-line and can't find anything satisfying WP:RS to satisfy the the notability criterion of extensive coverage in reliable secondary sources. If some appear here, please let me know & I'll modify my opinion. Pete.Hurd (talk) 04:29, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello. Is this discussion? No-one has answered my question above as to submitting sources of notability. I have to say I'm a pretty intuitive person and I can tell the direction of the flow so no worries about deleting the entry. Many thanks for searching for notable articles. Warm regards, Ciaran. --Merlinamagus (talk) 23:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
