[edit] Cleanup Tag

The first issue is neutral point of view. The following examples do not adhere to the policy:

I found all of these within the first paragraph. These and any other sentences like them need to be removed. They cannot be sourced. As Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, sources are extremely important. That brings me to my next point no original research. Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought. The article lists no sources which leads me to believe that it written by a fan of his work. That is fine, but sources are required for the article. The article must also assert the artist's notability without being biased towards one side. Right now, no real assertion of notability has been produced apart from the weasel worded comments that are prevalent throughout the article. This article is really in need of repair. I would ask one of the major contributors to do a complete overhaul of the article and remove the material that does not apply to Wikipedia's policy. I would be glad to help in any way, but I've never heard of the artist. If you have any questions or comments for me, feel free to leave them on my talk page.--Cyrus Andiron 19:14, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

No wonder it had this tone, it was lifted directly off of the artist's homepage. I reverted it back to an earlier version before all of the unsourced material was added. --Cyrus Andiron 19:24, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
