Deletion of William Barr 1867-1933 California Artist

Comment: Being dead certainly does not equate to notability. There is no assertion of |notability in the article and no |reliable sources are |cited. Moreover, the section beginning with the outbreak of the First World War isn't so much |original research as just made up

Comment: without prejudice to recreation if reliable sources are found about the man.  The article did not cite |reliable sources and Google Books does not have anything on him. http://books.google.com/books?q=%22William%20Barr%22%20artist%20OR%20painter&hl=en&lr=&sa=N&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&tab=wp I question whether askart.com can be used to assert notability.  Moreover, that is just one source and I could not find any other reliable ones

Comment: Vanity?  How come?  Seems to be a notable artist.  I'll move to William Barr (artist) per .  The two pictures in the article are photos that the uploader has taken of the original artwork, hence his assertion that he owns them.  However, I am not an expert on whether this is allowed as the works in question are almost certainly not his.  Askart is a database of painters and their works so it will have a few people listed
