I am not sure what is to be done with this article. It seems that this is about a painter who was once covered by the Baltimore Sun. Most of the "references" are either broken links, links to blogs, mirrors of that single story, or mysterious links (like a page about weather). All in all, and having googled him, he does not strike me as notable. Goochelaar (talk) 21:54, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete in concurrence with nom. Almost sounds autobiographical. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 22:03, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• You should notify the author of the article, 70.198.25.98 (talk · contribs · WHOIS). Also, here's a link to the AfC request and acceptance: Wikipedia:Articles for creation/2007-07-12#Stephen Verges. Powers ^T 00:20, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • In reviewing the original AFC submission, I think I know why I accepted it. It wasn't a high quality submission, to be sure, but AFC guidelines require only one reliable third-party source, and the Sun article certainly qualifies. I have no objections to deletion if the consensus is that the stricter Notability guidelines are not met. Powers ^T 00:25, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
