[edit] In Despair

Alleged cult Indian painting. Created by a single-purpose account; image is tagged {{GFDL-self}}; etc. Is this an advert or just a few newbie errors in creating an OK article? -- RHaworth 10:42, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete – only one piece of verifiable evidence, not even cited on the article. Also created the Famous Indian paintings for which to add it. Intentional self-promo. Bubba hotep 12:48, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete as hopeless blatant spam (criterion G11). It's bad enough creating an article about yourslef, but individual paintings? No way. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:00, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete are we really debating this? ad for his art! 4.18GB 13:26, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete — obvious spam -- lucasbfr ^talk 16:59, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete - That was art? I have seen better paintings by Fluffy the Office Max copy cat. Still one mans trash is... nevermind. Obvious self-promotion. Both thumbs down. --Bill W. Smith, Jr. 17:04, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

btw, on further browsing I noticed the pseudorealism article says something to the effect that this new age in art started in 1974. Coincidence it is the year of this artists birth? I think not... --Bill W. Smith, Jr. 07:17, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

  • See also Pseudorealism and Pseudorealism in Indian Art. Managed to get top ranks by his campaign here. Pavel Vozenilek 20:57, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete no reference to where this painting can be seen, whether it has won any awards, etc. NawlinWiki 21:20, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
• D-l33t Not a bad painting, but no earthly reason for an article.
