Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vincent Chorabik
Everything is too recent. He's had some minor exhibitions: in a hospital, a community centre, and in what I'm guessing are small art galleries or one-off art spaces. His "notable work" is a recent piece which has the hallmarks of a hoax: "This piece was displayed with a 30,000 CAN dollar price tag and a red sticker. It is traditional for art galleries to display artwork with a red sticker when it has been sold, so it is a logical conclusion to believe it was purchased for that price, though it has not been confirmed by the artist or gallery." This sounds like someone is attempting to use Wikipedia to promote that stunt. Likewise, the contested deletion notice on the talk page states that he is "an important artist in the Vancouver community and I believe he deserves recognition for his work" and that "Wikipedia deserves to have his name on their page." (What did Wikipedia ever do to deserve that?) Obviously that's |not what Wikipedia is for
— NONE, NONE
