*'''Keep''' - Looking at the state of the article when it was tagged [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=David_Willis_%28cartoonist%29&oldid=223501446]], it was in pretty poor shape. It looks like there's been plenty of improvement since then, but no one removed the tags or discussed them on the talk page. I don't think it fits those tags now, and would suggest they could be safely removed. --[[User:InkSplotch|InkSplotch]] ([[User talk:InkSplotch|talk]]) 14:43, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Speedy Keep - Looking at the state of the article when it was tagged [[1]], it was in pretty poor shape. It looks like there's been plenty of improvement since then, but no one removed the tags or discussed them on the talk page. I don't think it fits those tags now, and would suggest they could be safely removed. --InkSplotch (talk) 14:43, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
