[edit] Tom bond

Not notable. brenneman(t)(c) 14:54, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete: Ditto, but nice painting though. Karmafist 15:47, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Reserved I'd really quite like to keep this one, it mentions his works hanging in galleries, if anyone can state a known gallery, that'll do it for me, the guy obviously has talent and I would say the claims of being a master watercolourist are probably jusitified.

    • Comment: Just hanging in a gallery is not notability. Anybody can do that. Zoe 19:25, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
      • I am living disproof of that statement. Meelar (talk) 21:20, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

*Assert notability quickly, or delete. JDoorjam 23:30, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep - I'm struggling with this one, too. I was able to find two online art galleries that sell his originals and prints, some for up to $1,800. -PlainSight 03:27, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
    • Comment - This appears similar to "vanity pressing" of a book. One demonstration of notability would be a review of a show (or a mention by name in a group show) in news media or notable arts media. - brenneman(t)(c) 07:21, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Reserved This is hard, and having a common name doesn't help either, but the article seems to be a copyvio from http://www.pressellergallery.com/tom_bond.htm. --Apyule 05:02, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Are promotional text copyrighted? - Mgm|(talk) 10:18, August 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Copyvio. Tagged and bagged. JDoorjam 13:52, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
