[edit] George Huszar

Blatant advert. -- RHaworth 16:54, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Did you get that the right way round?--Anthony.bradbury 17:53, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

GDeCourcy added the "keep" there for some reason. I've removed it. NeoChaosX (he shoots, he scores!) 19:21, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - agree, this looks like an ad page. Cybergoth 16:59, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

• Keep -- this is a valuable resourse (which is what Wikipedia is forGDeCourcy 16:59, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

This article should not be penalized because I am a newbie & learning how to code the site & am very slow at the learning process to get info on this artist up here.

This is not a personal advert. I and other clients of Mr. Huszar's recognize his talent is known in Romania but is just now becoming known through out Europe & the USA. His work is important & he is 1 of a very very few humans who does this traditional Icon work. His stylized fashion is brilliant, he uses only those very expensive traditional media, like tempera and 23 Kt. gold leaf gold, platinum and palladium leaf Gilding. He has the works blessed, authenticated by several institutions in Romania.

George Cristian Huszar is a Romanian Living Cultural National Treasure. This is a great honour of few persons in history in any nation.

There are many pages for artists, both dead & contemporary; Famous & not so famous. George Cristian Huszar is a noteworthy artist & it would be silly to delete this.

I find this article contains the ONLY picture of the Reverse Painting on Glass process. It is also 1 of the few contemporary Icon pictures on Wikipedia. His work is important to the Romanian icons genre and has been recognized as such the the Romanian Orthodox Church.

Art & articles of interest are subjective. This article is educational, informative & I don't understand what would make someone go out of their way to want to delete this.

Mr. Huszar is traveling & I am awaiting info on his awards or associated notariety. I don't want to incorrectly add anything that isn't true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GDeCourcy (talk • contribs) Author of the article under discussion.

The article is not being penalised because you are a newbie. It is being nominated because you seem to be acting as George Huszar's agent. There is therefore a strong conflict of interest which in my view reaches the point of advertising. -- RHaworth 20:35, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

• Keep I think this article, which is not written by the subject thereof, is a useful resource.--Anthony.bradbury 17:56, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete There's no claims of notability in the article, which reads like a CV / resume. The clincher is that it doesn't mention anything notable that he has actually done. :: Princess Tiswas 18:22, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

• Comment I have now added his notability. He as an artist had actually had the very rare designation by Romania as being listed as a Romanian Cultural National Treasure he is also recognized by UNESCO. See also Living National Treasure I have copied things from newspaper articles & off of the actual seals he has been bestowed, to place on his works GDeCourcy 27 november 2006 (UTC)

If anyone knows how to make the title of the actual article page "George Cristian Huszar" & then have a redirect from "George Huszar" that would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.

• Keep. His awards and the places where he has exhibited add up, I think, to a certain level of notability. They're not sourced and that is a problem, but the solution is to find sources, not delete the article (which also need to be edited for tone). The examples shown of his works are quite good, which of course doesn't matter, except that artists who are good are more likely to have notability and increase it over time. Herostratus 16:08, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Where or how do I add source info, is that a template, a code, another page that links to this one etc.. my sources were mentioned are the newspaper articles, the Church, the seals of recognition from the backs of his works, his honors etc.. but I don't know how else to list that than how I put then in the article.

Mr. Huszar is possibly having an article about his rare works done in the Washington Post. We do not yet have a publishing date. You never know what reporters will use. He is also in the USA doing some work for large corporations that want his works in thier offices.GDeCourcy 15:01, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as unverifiable. In view of Herostratus's and GDeCourcy's anticipation of future write-ups (e.g. in the Washington Post), userfy, and GDeCourcy can re-create the article when sources become available. Pan Dan 18:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

• Comment I have sited sources such as newspaper articles that I do have copies of articles. some such as "România Liberă {Free Roamia} & Evenimentul Zilei {Day News}) Everything in the article is true & based on fact. He has also done work for US & European corporations, & CEO's for private & public use. His works are in Churchs & in private residences, various galleries.GDeCourcy 03:02, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment I still don't see any citations in the article. If you have copies of articles that verify the material in the Wikipedia article, please cite them. It's not enough to say that newspapers have written about him, you have to specify the title, author, and date of the specific articles. Pan Dan 13:54, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Nothing else to add.TheRingess 03:03, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
• keep. I consider the data in the article demonstrate the notability. Now, the editor involved needs to enter exact citation ofthe sources--the UNESCO one at least should be in English. DGG 03:51, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
