Talk:Michael D. Fay

Requests from the subject of the article

I would appreciate, in my post-retirement, mention of my Master of Fine Arts in Illustation thesis 'The Boy Who Drew Soldiers', a citation exists here: http://books.google.com/books/about/Naturalist_to_Imagist.html?id=lYm6mAEACAAJ and the 'project' I initiated and currently oversee, The Joe Bonham Project. New York Times arts writer Carol Kino did a piece about it and attests to my position in this endeavor: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/27/arts/design/joe-bonham-project-illustrates-the-wounds-of-war.html?_r=0 Here is a general link to The Joe Bonham Project articles available on the internet: https://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&hl=en&q=michael+d+fay+fire+and+ice+farnsworth#hl=en&q=joe+bonham+project And, our most recent exhibit hosted by journalist Karen Curry: http://articles.philly.com/2013-11-02/news/43595401_1_joe-bonham-project-civil-war-world-war-ii

You will also find a citation for my participation in an exhibit at the Navy Museum here: http://www.monicawatercolors.com/docs/CombatArtBroc_v5_web.pdf

Here is a link to the catalog for my one man exhibit at the Farnsworth Museum and Wyeth Center: http://books.google.com/books?id=P_WKnAEACAAJ&dq=michael+d+fay+fire+and+ice+farnsworth&hl=en&sa=X&ei=mriYUtWaLYvloASe-oEY&ved=0CDgQ6AEwAA — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cwo2mdfay (talk • contribs)

Thanks for using the talk page. This is perfectly in accordance with WP:COI. I'll see what I can achieve. Fiddle Faddle 16:29, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Some of these are used already. Good! The MFA link doesn't get me anywhere to a reference to your MFA, so I need better guidance, please, before it can be included. Joe Bonham looks like it can have a whole article to itself. I'll work up at least a stub article about it. Some of the links I can;t use (yet?) Fiddle Faddle 16:45, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

This is a vastly enhanced article over that deleted at AfD

If considering it for speedy deletion as a recreation of a prior article please note that the referencing is vastly enhanced and the text, although similar, has been copyedited heavily. The gentleman is most assuredly notable and the article, while always capable of being improved, reflects that. Fiddle Faddle 19:05, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

I have just added {{Oldafd}} to the head of this page. Any editor wondering why this article is here unchallenged should talk to the deleting admin in that discussion, who has undeleted it to allow further development and returned it to main namespace. The article as deleted is [1] and as restored to main namespace is [2] One can see by inspecting this diff showing the deleted version versus that recreated, that there are substantial differences.
