No assertion of notability; all references are from blogs and deviant art journals. No noteworthy exhibits or works mentioned. Lithoderm 16:50, 9 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Revamped the whole article. I highly suggest reconsideration of the AfD before deletion. Victor "waran4" N. Bakke (talk) 23:52, 9 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You added photos, yes, but the lack of reliable sources continues to bother me. Furthermore, how do you have the authorization to publish these pictures under creative commons? You wouldn't happen to be Reinaldo Quintero himself, would you? Lithoderm 00:18, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, I'm not Reinaldo Qintero. And I'm just wondering; Is it only the lack of 3rd party references that is the flaw?Victor "waran4" N. Bakke (talk) 22:17, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll give your identity the benefit of the doubt. It happens very often, more often than you'd think. The article must not only include third party references, but those references must establish the notability of the subject. Right now the article doesn't prove that he meets the specific guidelines for artist's notability. Lithoderm 22:25, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The subject fails WP:CREATIVE and WP:NOTE. Would probably qualify as a speedy candidate under G11 as a promotional article, especially with unsourced statements such as, "His style is widely used by artists all over the world, but it is the detail and grade og realism that has made him to one of the greatest artists of his kind." --Farix (Talk) 00:27, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per both. Johnbod (talk) 01:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Qualifies as speedy delete-promotional. --CronopioFlotante (talk) 22:58, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
