[edit]07:14:03, 2 March 2018 review of submission by MickeyViolet
[edit]- MickeyViolet (talk · contribs)
Would you please explain why my page has been declined this third time in such a rude manner? The reviewer said I had "stubbornly refused" to pay attention to comments but I have only just started editing Wikipedia and believed I was following earlier advice.

- MickeyViolet - Mickey, not sure why you've posted again, as I've responded above? KJP1 (talk) 07:22, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
14:57:10, 2 March 2018 review of submission by Quibu
[edit]Hello! I've been trying to submit an article about the German artist Quint Buchholz but it keeps getting rejected. The last reviewer recommended the following: "Before you submit this again, I strongly suggest that you review the above criteria for notability and gather something like three references that you think hit the sweet spot on that first notability criterion. Ask for an appraisal of just those refs (not the whole submission) at the AfC Help Desk. If you can get the reviewers there to agree that you've passed the notability hurdle, add a pointer to the discussion as a comment at the top of the draft and then resubmit. I believe that should result in an accepted article. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 06:10, 13 August 2017 (UTC)"
So, would you please review the first notability criterion, i.e. "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors" for artist Quint Buchholz. I would like to note that Buchholz has illustrated and published over 70 books, among them books by Nobel prize winners. Many internationally renowned authors have even written stories specifically about his pictures (BookPictureBook, 1997.) He has received a long list of international awards, among them two Batchelder Awards and NY Times Book awards. Also, there is already a page about him on the German Wikipedia, which shows that Wikipedia reviewers have already acknowledged his notability in the past.
Moreover, these following sources (which are only a small selection) should show that painter and illustrator Quint Buchholz is a notable person of the German and international arts scene who is cited/discussed by colleagues as well as in independent (scholarly) publications:
Heidenreich, Elke. "Im Schutz der Bücher und der Tiere", Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, November 27, 2010 (http://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/buecher/rezensionen/belletristik/die-bibel-in-bildern-von-quint-buchholz-im-schutz-der-buecher-und-der-tiere-11071353.html). This is a review of one of Quint Buchholz's own books by renowned German writer and critic Elke Heidenreich, whose book "Nero Corleone - A Cat's Story" Buchholz illustrated in 1997 and which has won numerous awards.
Budeus-Budde, Roswitha, "Quint Buchholz", Sueddeutsche Zeitung, November 4, 2016 (http://www.sueddeutsche.de/kultur/grossformat-quint-buchholz-1.3234785). This is a large article about Buchholz's painting technique in a national German newspaper.
Nodelman, Perry. "Message on a Canvas". NY Times. Retrieved 2 March 2018 (http://www.nytimes.com/books/99/11/21/reviews/991121.21nodelmt.html). This is a 1999 review of Buchholz's book The Collector of moments by Canadian children's literature critic Perry Nodelman for the New York Times.
Dolle-Weinkauff, Bernd: "Postmoderne im deutschsprachigen Bilderbuch: ein Streifzug durch Werke von H.M. Enzensberger / Michael Sowa, Jörg Steiner / Jörg Müller sowie Quint Buchholz." in: LiCus. Journal of Literary Theory and Cultural Studies, 2 (2007), 2, 131-147. This is an independent, academic discussion of Quint Buchholz's relevance for the postmodern picture book.
Franz, Kurt, Kinder- und Jugendliteratur. Ein Lexikon. Corian-Verlag, 2001, p. 312. ISBN 978-3-89048-150-0. This is a dictionary of children's and young adults' literature, where Quint Buchholz is listed and discussed as an illustrator and painter.
Kronthaler, Helmut (ed.), Quint Buchholz. In: Lexikon der Illustration im deutschsprachigen Raum seit 1945. edition text + kritik, Munich, 2009, ISBN 978-3-8691-6191-4. This is another dictionary of German illustrators listing and discussing Quint Buchholz as a notable artist.
Partsch, Susanna, "Quint Buchholz". In: Rosemarie Zacher, Susanna Partsch: Maler des Augenblicks. Wie Monet & Co. die Farbe entdeckten. Berlin Verlag, 2007, ISBN 978-3-8270-5216-2. In this academic publication, Partsch and Zacher dedicate a whole chapter of their booklength discussion of a number of painters (among them Monet) to Quint Buchholz.
Thank you for your time.
