• Delete. Fails WP:ARTIST. I couldn't find any proper references beside one in Time of India and this is quite far from significant coverage. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 14:38, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Note It is very likely that Nexabee and Zikolic are socks - see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mindcap. SmartSE (talk) 15:23, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Amazingly they are not, but they are obviously undisclosed paid editors and have both been blocked. This qualified for deletion via G5 IMO per WP:PROXYING, but since this discussion is ongoing, it may as well be left to run the full 7 days. SmartSE (talk) 18:52, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
