Not a notable artist. Look through the history if you like and you'll find this article was much pruned by New Media Theorist and others, but the previous version has only more fluff, much of which promotional URLs for Island6. This appears to be part of a walled garden involving Island6, discussion of which is currently at WP:COIN. Drmies (talk) 17:41, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete glad to see this here as I was about to propose it myself. As the article says, this is a fictional character/artistic persona of Thomas Charveriat. I Deleted about 50% of the article on the basis that the invented, uncited text is fiction, aka original research. What's left is minimal, and part of the possible walled garden at at this WP:COIN discussion. At most I think this fictional character persona could be covered by a sentence or two at Thomas Charveriat or Island6, depending on which of those pages survive ongoing AFD and WP:Coin discussions. Reference search turns up nothing significant. New Media Theorist (talk) 19:03, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The COIN discussion (from some time in the nearish future, presumably moved here) is fascinating, even by WP:COIN standards. -- Hoary (talk) 22:55, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Plain and simple...simply delete as there has been no better improvement since starting in April 2010 and my searches found nothing good at all. SwisterTwister talk 07:03, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (or possibly redirect to Island6), as argued above. -- Hoary (talk) 05:10, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this article reads as of it is a meta-performance art piece itself. Bearian (talk) 18:21, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
