What will make Wikipedia great is its ability to hold in depth detailed information about relatively unknown artists and people as well as famous people. There are vaults of knowledge just buried in the archives and private collections that are about important events and people, but you have to become an amateur historian to find and collect the detail. Then sadly once found, it is lost again to the finders own personal archive for want of somewhere to publish it. Louis Davis is a great example of this, a fantastic artist working in a totally ignored material, glass. Listing all his works here not only makes it easy to navigate through the information, it accelerates the journey of discovery of this great artist. The fact at Rembrandt does not have a page listing in detail all his works is an oversight of the people who love Rembrandt. I found Louis Davis in the church 100 metres from my home, and then found this page, which opened up access to his whole career. This page gets my vote, and as for “notable”, well, time will be our judge on that aspect of his work.
