Talk:Zephyr (artist)

message: OK, so he's been in two films as himself.  I dont dispute that.  But as an actor he would not make Wikipedia.  He's listed on here because he's a graffiti artist and, supposedly, an important one.  Fine. But let's see the sources which show that.  It doesnt work just saying that this is the case.  If  graffiti art is to be on here - and it should be - it has to be on here on the same terms as anything else artistic; ie. on the basis of verifiable merit.  If graffiti art is allowed to skip the important verification aspect then it opens itself up to any old spam being added in it's name and to constant AfD's.   Marcus22 16:43, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: * First off, there is absolutely no "personal abuse" in my comment above. Secondly, I am now going to remove the line related to music videos - since that seems to especially bother you. Third, I won't bother responding to any of your other comments since you seem to be here just to pick fights rather than source, write or edit the article in any way. As far as I'm concerned the "notability" tag can stay up permanently. All the best--JJay 20:15, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

text: * No, it's not up to others - that's simply passing the buck - since you placed the tag on this article and I strongly disagreed, but you didn't hesitate for two seconds to revert, despite my request for time to work on the article. You need to either explain why one of the leading old-school writers is not "notable" or remove the tag. I can't read your mind, particularly when you admit that you have "no idea" whether the subject is "notable" or not. As far as I'm concerned, for anyone familiar with the history of graffiti in NYC, the question wouldn't even be raised. Regarding the "unsourced claims to notability" - I removed an unsourced statement related to commercial work on music videos for some pop singers. If that's your basis for "notability", rather than say appearing as himself and doing the logo for the seminal film on the movement, or multiple quotes in the Times, or even being a recognized authority on graffiti through lectures and published works (check google , I think we inhabit two different worlds. --JJay 19:18, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
