message: It seems there is a slow-motion edit war going on here, and I strongly suspect both editors involved of having a conflict of interest. I would ask that you both stop editing this page, particularly if you are going to add material that does not adhere to Wikipedia's well established policy of neutrality in articles. thanks Beeblbrox (talk) 20:18, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

For postcards, or all for advertising? -- Hoary (talk) 23:58, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: If you can cite reliable sources saying that his photographs are intense, then you're free to build something out of these. Ditto for his style of working. -- Hoary (talk) 15:18, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Style 

message: On this edit, in which Bagima adds a pile of awards, citing Lik's website: No, a claim for an award needs an independent authority. See here as an example of how award lists should be sourced. -- Hoary (talk) 00:41, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: "This information is available on Peter Lik's website"

message: I believe Peter Lik grew up in the Melbourne suburb of Vermont and studied primary (elementary) school teaching before embarking on his photography career.
Can anyone confirm or deny this?Flanker235 (talk) 01:38, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Peter Lik’s Recipe for Success

message: In Feb-18 Lik was been accused of hypocrisy for the digital manipulation of an image called "Moonlight Dreams" on the grounds, among others, that the moon image was recycled and that Lik's sale team swear the images "real.".  This seems worthy of inclusion but misrepresentation by sales staff is different from any claim by Lik himself.  I think this should be added but someone more familiar with him may have some better information.Tjej (talk) 05:23, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
