Talk:Mark Prent

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article was nominated for deletion on February 19 2008. The result of the discussion was keep.

This article is not written by Mark Prent, because I am not him I only made the account name the same as his, because I don't plan to add or edit any other articles on Wikipedia with this account. I'm not sure how Mr. Prent does not qualify as a notable person, as his work has been featured in in many primary and secondary sources. Although there isn't much available online, he's been in several books and I'd be more than happy to cite them. Mark Prent also owns a well-known and highly respected molding and casting company, and produces technical videos. His sculptures are also regularly on display at various galleries, and have been bought for many different private collections. Other articles on Wikipedia make mention of Mark Prent, including the "Avrom Isaacs" and "Lothar Wolleh" articles.

Also, according to Wikipedia, this should not be already tagged for deletion:

"If you know that it will take you a few edits to properly list references, put the template "{underconstruction}" on top of the page to signify to other editors that you are working on it, so they don't tag it for deletion yet."

As I am working on obtaining more sources, and since the article is listed as being incomplete, there should be no reason to tag it for deletion less than 2 hours after I created it.

I will continue editing the page to make it more neutral, as I agree with you on that point.

Otherwise, though, I feel like the concerns you raised with the article are very vague, so it would be extremely helpful if you could clarify a bit more.

[edit] Cleanup

Article cleaned up to fit WP:MOS, rm'ed florid language, re-arranged and added many links and references. removed some commercial external links (WP:EL). Removed tags npov - hopefully I got most of it - feel free to re-add, and underconstruction - no activity noted. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 01:12, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
