Do not Delete, valid and interesting 20th century artist..recently deceased..Modernist (talk) 14:49, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's not the problem (at least, that's not the problem yet. The problem is that, as far as I can tell, every sentence comes from http://www.johnplumb.co.uk/ . This means that, absent a notice otherwise, the work is copyrighted by Frank Whitford, and cannot be licensed under the GDFL or used on Wikipedia, unless Frank Whitford gives his explicit permission. (See WP:DCP for details on how that would work).

The second problem, which won't need to be addressed until the first is resolved, is that the article lavishes praise on the subject, rather than treating them in a neutral point of view.

The third problem is that the article does not demonstrate the subject's notability via references to reliable sources, which means it may not meet the general notability guidelines or notability guidelines for creative professionals. gnfnrf (talk) 15:01, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll deal with those concerns...Modernist (talk) 15:09, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
