30 1 I dispute most of this statement Controversy exists about the branding of Arborsculpture as none of the practitioners he presents in his book Arborsculpture Solutions for a small planet use the methods as described in the books accept the term or agree to be tagged by it This wiki page is not about the book Arborsculpture or the about author The statement is a lie as several of the subjects in the book do use the word Herman Block who was in the book uses the chair making techniques as described in the book If someone resurrects a lie that was edited out long ago it s the same as writing the lie themselves But I ll accept this Controversy exists about the naming or branding of the art form as Arborsculpture This page should not be used as a way to slap down the competition when someone has a new book coming out on the same subject Blackash is pooktre and has a conflict of interest a new book coming out and needs to sign with 4 tildes so we can track what they do on wikipedia There were some good historical photos on the page but these have been replaced with error notices this is very close to vandalism The methods described on the page are general enough and do reflect the methods used to create the trees in the historical photos shown The historical photos should be returned I don t think Portmanteau is accurate conjunction is better I think the following should be removed Richard Reames was inspired by the works of Axel Erlandson to attempt his first experiments with growing trees in chairs which lead him to writing his first book How to grow a chair before his experiments were mature While this is true this Wiki page is about the word Arborsculpture it is not about Richard Reames or his books 69 19 14 19
