Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:Visual arts/Selected quote/8
Offensive and unsourced. Can we please NOT have this in our " doorway into Wikipedia's coverage on art"? Vexations (talk) 02:17, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:NOTCENSORED. A fan of pop art might find Portal:Visual arts/Selected quote/9 equally offensive but that would not be grounds to remove it either. Appropriate grounds for deletion are e.g. if the quote is arcane or by an artist who is barely relevant. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 05:33, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep. This is an out-of-scope attempt to micromanage a portal. Weird stuff is ok in the visual arts. This quote is weird. I recommend to them that they achieve it due to failure of verifiability. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:11, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
- Nonsense. See Wikipedia:Offensive material
... should be used if and only if its omission would cause the article to be less informative, relevant, or accurate, and no equally suitable alternative is available
I do take your point about micromanaging a portal. I'll take it to the project to see if we can find something better. Request for deletion withdrawn. Vexations (talk) 12:52, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
