[edit] John Russell Herbert
Also nominating the following related page:
Non-notable artist. Previously speedied; contested PROD. Relevant Ghits on full name = 0 (after subtracting link to deleted Wiktionary entry), on "John Herbert" +artist = none apparent in top 100 results; on employer the Lagniappe Project + surname = 0; on "MW Balance" + Wroclaw = 0. Two sources are provided. The first ("Baccalaureate Career") allows one to access a self-generated alumnus profile indicating that subject did indeed double-major as an undergraduate at a Maryland College. The second is a link to employer The Lagniappe Project that does not mention the subject. A search of the website for second employer, Maryland Institute College of Art, finds a directory listing for subject as employed in the Alumni Program Development office.[1]. In short, nothing appears to back up statement that the subject is "credited as a major figure in the turn of the twenty-first century movement" synthesizing trends of the previous century. In the absence of veriable information on exhibitions, publications, reviews, etc., fails WP:BIO. Also nominating article on subject's "movement", New Spiritual Aestheticism (oddly, not mentioned in subject's own article), of which I cannot find a trace. Robertissimo 05:09, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
