- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result of the debate was no consensus, so keep for now. Consider this a probationary period in which the article, having now come to the attention of the community, can be cleaned up. The link provided suggests importance in a particular cultural context, which makes at the very least for merge-worthy material. Mackensen (talk) 17:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No reliable sources used. Non-notable under WP:BIO. Ad link has recurred. Possible vanity page. This google search showed only 41 English hits for his full name, most apparently to a medical doctor by the same name still in Czechoslovakia. Reliable sources therein show that he works for a library (in a non-notable role) in Australia, and the adlink only shows three placards by him for sale. Article created by an IP that did nothing else that day and not much else since, adlink reinserted by a user that has only worked on this article. Article has had one removal of the adlink, one copyedit, and an image removeal by Orphanbot in its 7.5 months of existance. Article linked to only by a redirect page.

- Comment Subject is included in WP's List of Australian artists as "Josef L. Stejskal", but that gets zero Ghits. Needs to be fixed up sharpish with some evidence that this is not just a vani-advert. --DaveG12345 00:35, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as possible hoax, unverifiable and unsourced article. Ghits under 600 suggest nn, though admittedly the foreign-language sites complicate fact-checking. Article history entirely unhelpful to any suggestion of veracity or being encyclopedic. Tychocat 02:00, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and move to Josef Stejskal - the Czech article on http://www.bonus.webzdarma.cz/kontakt.html, signed by Professor Petr Oslzlý, cites this person ("dnes česko-australský výtvarník a knihovník, surrealista Pepča Stejskal" = "today Czech-Australian artist and librarian, surrealist Pepča Stejskal") as one of the members of the cultural milieu of Brno in 1970s and does not doubt about his existence. So I think that this proves that Stejskal exists and is notable to some degree.--Ioannes Pragensis 15:09, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
