Talk:Drew Brophy

This info about Drew Brophy is relevant on the topic of surf art, and should not be deleted. It's about the history of the surf art of painting on surfboards and is completely accurate. A search on the internet (google) of Drew Brophy will bring up pages of sites that will clarify that the information on this site is accurate.

Then why make it sound like it was a made-up biography? It would be the best choice to put all that info together and added it to the article to make it notable. And add the sources to prove the information. --esanchez, Camp Lazlo fan! 04:42, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

E Sanchez, I didn't realize this sounded made up. I looked at other artist's profiles on this site and followed the way they were worded - they name the birth date, where the person was born, and some relevant information on their impact on the art world. I pulled info from many different sites, there are pages & pages on google, and I grabbed the facts and left out the "fluff". Please help me make this more real! I think it' too short, but I don't want to add opinion or fluff. You tell me what to do! Thanks!

Apage that can help you would be here: WP:CITE. --esanchez, Camp Lazlo fan! 05:02, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

OK, I've added a few quotes from websites that I found about the topic. I hope this satisfies! If not, well, give me more specifics and I'll have to work on it more tomorrow, as I have to put my kids to bed! Goodnight and sweet dreams!
