• Delete per nom. No verifiable sources for notability. Tevildo 22:07, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Graffiti artists, while they have their own fame, also have infamy: while they certainly have notability in their own circle, most people tend to see graffiti as an eyesore. There's also the fact that many so-called artists see this as a form of marking their territory, which (to me, at any rate) is comparable to a dog urinating on a tree. --Dennisthe2 23:47, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

• Comment Although I agree that this should be deleted, Wikipedia is not censored, and especially not merely because a subject is aesthetically offensive to some. We have a massive article on Saddam Hussein and another on Adolf Hitler, and both were far more offensive than mere graffiti. The question in AfD is whether something is notable (and that has nothing to do with taste) and whether the information in the article is verifiable and comes from reliable sources, not whether you or I like it or not. --Charlene 00:03, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

• Well put, Charlene, well put. --Dennisthe2 02:13, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

• .. yes, but I like the bit about the dog urinating on a tree too! So it still looks like a Delete to me Marcus22 18:12, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. No verifiable information from Reliable sources. Edited for typo. --Charlene 00:03, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
• Weak merge as a brief mention to Kidrobot I guess he's a significant designer for them[1].. His bio is not sufficient for his own article though Bwithh 03:17, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
