Talk:Vanessa Beecroft

message: The first paragraph: not only does it contain peacock terms but it also uses vague and imprecise langueage that could only be accepted here in citations . The result is that the reader cannot actually get information, they are instead exposed to panache of words that say very little. Well, I was the reader, I wanted to read something about the artist. Instead I read how I should interpret her "uniquely complex fusion and aesthetic concerns".  - Mohylek 16:55, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  An example:  "The performances are existential encounters between models and audience, their shame and their expectations."  Who says?  What even is an 'existential encounter'? 50.100.30.43 (talk) 02:03, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

message: I agree with the user above; page is very favorable and not fitting to a fairly controversial artist.

message: Yes, odd article. And further, strange that the only link to the movie above, of which she is the focus, mentions nothing about the content of the movie itself. Perhaps a more appropriate link would be to Rotten Tomatoes for the movie, or http://jam.canoe.ca/Movies/Reviews/A/Art_Star_And_The_Sudanese_Twins/2009/03/20/8819551-sun.html ? - 202.46.177.2 (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 20:42, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: I worked today on cleaning up a lot of this article, it had very few citations (and is a BLP). I added in many RS citations, cleaned up the details. I noticed prior to some of the clean up efforts there had been a lot of peacocking and personal details added without citation. I am adding a note here in case this issue persists.
