NPOV dispute: resolved?
editThe phrases that were identified as non-neutral have now been revised to clarify that the views expressed therein are those of the artist, Byron Randall, and not the entry itself which neutrally summarises and describes the artist's world view. Rootbeerlc (talk) 18:33, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
Length question
editI've reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_size which suggests that articles under 6,000 words are not of a problematic length. This article is c2,500 words, but has been judged as potentially overlength: "This article may be too long to read and navigate comfortably. (June 2024)". I have looked at Wikipedia articles on visual artists such as Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Kathe Kollwitz, which are substantially longer than the Byron Randall article but have not been found potentially overlength by Wikipedia editors. Can you explain what makes the Byron Randall article problematic in length? Do you have recommendations other than trimming the length for making the article more comfortable to navigate? There are many book studies and scholarly articles about Bearden, Catlett, and Kollwitz, which makes a detailed article on Wikipedia less critical, arguably, as the information can be found elsewhere. This is not the case with Randall. He is beginning to receive academic attention, and the number of artworks by Randall in museums and medical centers has increased from c50 (prior to 2018) to c 500, since 2018. However Randall currently lacks any book or journal articles about his life and work. That makes this Wikipedia article all the more valuable as a source of information about the artist that cannot be found elsewhere, and suggests to me that 2,500 words is not excessive.

- Okay, we have a problem here. You say:
However Randall currently lacks any book or journal articles about his life and work.That makes this Wikipedia article all the more valuable as a source of information about the artist that cannot be found elsewhere
. This is the exact opposite of how Wikipedia works. Wikipedia is summary of other reliable sources. This is not the place to express orginal views on a subject. We’re not here to promote Randall or his works. So if there’s a deficit of sources on his life/work, then this article needs to be cut drastically. Dr. Swag Lord (talk) 06:48, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
