This article is not an exact copy though. This one was previously tagged with PROD as "Spam / original research / neologism", endorsed, then the article creator removed the PROD without comment. This article still doesn't seem to have any good references on popularity and the article is, frankly, a mess of copy-pasted random quotes. It'd need a lot of work to get to proper quality, and doesn't really add anything that would now convince of the notability of the movement... wwwwolf (barks/growls) 20:11, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. Neen artists have done nothing remarkable (except spamming Wikipedia, that is). ALL of their articles are (were) of such quality. Also, I found several (>10) editors with low edit counts and main focus on neen, contemporary and surrealist art; promoting artists, websites. I think it's more than coincidence. Details later, when I have some time to look into the matter. Frigo 21:50, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Lots of buzz about something that is everything and yet impossible to understand what actually is. `'mikka 23:00, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete 765 ghits for "Neen art", including WP and mirrors. Smells of astroturfing for notability. Tubezone 23:16, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • What is all this HATE against Miltos Manetas and Neen? These people are valuable artists, they make exhibitions all over the World and they create remarkable concepts.

I want to keep the Articles about them at the Wikipedia. I am not experienced, I just started my account today because I noticed that the Neen Article disappeared and I was using it for my University Thesis (I study Art in Italy) . Would you please explain me how to contest you decision to delete the articles?

All my best

  • Comment If Neen Art is as popular as you suggest, then finding other sources for your thesis shouldn't be a problem, right? If you want to contest an article's deletion after it's been deleted, go toWP:DRV, deletion review. I don't hate Neen so much as I think the subject just doesn't pass notability guidelines for inclusion. Tubezone 14:41, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
