• Keep I can't verify the sources, but if what is said is true he seems notable. Founder of an international art movement seems like enough. DJ Clayworth 16:09, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

• keep I cleaned up a bit. Article cites sources, and I have heard of stuckism. Brighterorange 19:02, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I get five Ghits for "absolom stuckism" (no quotes) and only one for "absolom stuckist". This is a discouraging count for a proof of notability. Denni ☯ 01:10, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Nine unique hits for Philip Absolom [1]. Google books comes up empty [2] as does Google Scholar [3]. Founders of international art movements attract interest from scholars - this guy hasn't. You can draw your own conclusion. For mine, he is almost unverifiable and certainly not notable. Capitalistroadster 01:27, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I've checked out the Walker Gallery, a national UK Museum [4] and he is listed there, but as Absolon, with an n, not an m. There is another article on Wiki with the proper spelling. This one is just a duplicate with the same material and the name spelt wrongly. Tyrenius 12:34, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
