Notability issues

The criteria for inclusion in wikipedia has not been meet. The reference 3, nothing here can be verified on a serious level to explain why it has been included. One reference is to a blog websites. The artist doesnt even have an official website. Full reliable sources must be given as reference to be included in wikipedia. WP:NOT It is not a place for advertising artist. And should have a NPOV tone and not "He bravely ..." the most important criteria for a living person is verifiable reference. --41.177.4.235 (talk) 16:34, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree it was (and still is) a very poorly referenced article. I have already added a few references and will try to work on this article more, because I believe he is a notable artist throughout Africa and therefore belongs on Wikipedia. I will also work on achieving a neutral tone. Thanks! Jennes83 (talk) 17:08, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
