Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aras Vaichas

Vanity page. Doesn't mention any notable achievements. regards, High on a tree 01:47, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)

• Keep: Look him up on google and you will see that his works have been exhibited at the National Museum of Australia and various other galleries, he has a definate web presence. Page is more of a stub, give it time to be filled in. It's not future tense, it's present tense because it describes Aras' ability to do something or to use something e.g. "watch Aras as he uses those materials to make a sculpture". As Aras is currently an artist, he is currently making art. * I just read the deletion policy, and I am happy to become a registered user of Wikipedia because I use it many times per day. Please keep this page until I have the time to register myself and I will make the page a personal page. Is that OK?
  • Absolutely! Sorry if we come off as too harsh, but you are, of course, welcome and encouraged to make this part of a personal page. The writing threw me, at least. If you had wished to keep the article in main Wikipedia space, I think you'd do well to list some of the exhibitions, juried awards, and the like. The normal VfD process takes 5 days, and registering should take you just a moment. Welcome to Wikipedian-ism, and feel free to improve this article throughout the voting period, if you would like us to reconsider our votes on its status within the Wikipedia. For my part, I will hold off on changing vote, although you have clearly been working on the page, until you get a chance to add some of the notability. Geogre 04:46, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • As Geogre says, you are very welcome to make this into User:Aras Vaichas. Before you insist on keeping the entry as a wp article, I suggest that you read the recommendations at Wikipedia:Auto-biography. I see that there has indeed been one collaborative work on display at Canbrerra's national museum for one week in february - congratulations, but it doesn't quite convince me that you belong to the "painters, sculptors, architects, engineers, and other professionals whose work is recognized as exceptional and likely to become a part of the enduring historical record of that field". Don't take it personal. I'd sure like to see that kangaroo and wish you well for you career. regards, High on a tree 21:07, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Cool. Thanks guys. I've made myself a personal page and I will consider re-enterring myself into the main encyclopaedia when I can create a more full and rounded entry. ;) So it's OK to delete the entry. Not much time left over after balancing an art career and full time engineering. *puff* Aras Vaichas

• Delete: accomplishments are in the future tense -- he "will do" art. Geogre 12:26, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. The article doesn't indicate any notability. Average Earthman 13:30, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
