[edit] Notability

Gary Lee Price is just as famous as most of the other sculptors listed on the sculptors page, all of which have articles written about them. He has proven his ability to create beautiful life size sculptures seen all over the world. This article is also a stub, and need definite help from other users. I was about to add the stub tag to it, before pyro put on the speedy deletion tag.

'gary' might be notable and deserve his own article. but you keep refering to 'gary' as 'gary'. 'gary' this, 'gary' that. use pronouns and his last name instead. pyro probably put the deletion tag cuz how poorly this article was written. wiki'ing it up might make it look presentable. also, 'gary' may be famous, but not more famous than other sculptors. he shouldnt have been put under the "sculpture" category. thats more for styles, materials, periods and concepts, not individuals or works themselves. he especially shouldnt have been put at the top of the list either, instead listed in alphabetical order and listed under "sculptors" along with everyone else.
