This sounds like a self advertisement for this guy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.142.109.151 (talk) 06:31, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tyler Shields is running a campaign to have his article on Wikipedia edited by friends in order to add validity to the "claims" of his recent events in order to make them seem real. Already this article has been edited by Tyler himself or friends of Tyler in order to give credibility to his hoaxes and claims.

Tyler Sold a photo for 1 million dollars, making it the 8th most expensive photo sold in the world and knocking Andy Warhol off the list. The main news outlet to report this amazing artistic feat was the Celebrity Gossip website RadarOnline. [1]

Many other articles come out. In the article they state that an "anonymous silicon valley computer mogul" Purchased the photo

This "artist" is a known for pushing the limits artist. Several people have come out showing how the "stunt" was shocking and dangerous

This is real. [2]

Many Theories have been made as to how he creates images but none are known to be fact "Shields will not reveal" You can also see this in the behavior of the light and photos, the light areas where white light can show through washes out dark areas of the other photo. photo where the white wall behind the subjects legs washes out the middle of the mouth in the other photo.

Promotional edits

As I've noted at User talk:Freddy Taylor, a single-purpose account, edits to Wikipedia have to be encyclopedically verified by reliable-source citations and be written in a neutral, non-promotional tone. The edits by Freddy Taylor make claims about books selling out and the subject being a hugely popular artist etc., with the only "citations" for these qualitative assertions being Tyler Shields' own website. On at least two occasions, he has attempted to hijack this page for promotional usage. I will pass along this second warning to him, on his talk page. --Tenebrae (talk) 00:17, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for raising Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Freddy Taylor. This will be handy for flagging any future spamming attempts. Fæ (talk) 15:32, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tumblr website

http://lydiasdiary.tumblr.com is not a website of Tyler Shields and so fails WP:RS as a source for any facts about Shields. Tumblr could be used within the constraints of WP:SELFPUB for personal facts about the person writing their blog comments (if it can be verified that the site is officially theirs) but not for facts about other people.

-As for the claims that he sold a photo for 1 million dollars, making it the 8th most expensive photo sold in the world and knocking Andy Warhol off the list is unsubstantiated and dubious. The only news outlet to report this amazing artistic feat was the Celebrity Gossip website RadarOnline.

-No other proof has come out. In the article they state conveniently that an "anonymous silicon valley computer mogul" (I guess he's not anonymous enough to tell them what he does for a living and all that) bought the photo before the gallery opening for 1 million dollars. No art or photography sites have back this claim up or posted about this record breaking sale. Nothing has been shown to prove the validity of this claim except the celebrity gossip website.
+Many other articles come out. In the article they state  that an "anonymous silicon valley computer mogul" Purchased the photo
-This "artist" is a known hoax artist. Several people have come out showing how the "stunt" where Tyler shot a man was faked for performance art.
+This "artist" is a known for pushing the limits artist. Several people have come out showing how the "stunt" was shocking and dangerous
-''1. Look at the recoil on Tyler's arms, there was almost none, this is a clear telltale of a blank.''
-''2. the person who got hit then flinched to the side was clearly acting. Only a few people know what it's like to be actually shot with a bullet proof vest, it distributes the weight and it's like being hit in the chest with a sledge hammer.
-This person was not hit with a real bullet.''
+''This is real.''
-''3. It's pretty obvious that when Tyler goes up to the person with the vest on to check them, he pulls out an already shot bullet. Maybe fired against a vest.''
-''4. The man shot is covering the spot where he was hit, you never see the impact mark on the vest again showing that this was faked.''
-''5. The carefree environment where they just tell people to "clear" then shoot a live weapon would be EXTREMELY dangerous. Tyler is not a trained gunsmith, someone very well could have been hurt or an accidental discharge. There is no way this was a real bullet indoors.''
-''The sound, the behavior, the result, no recoil etc..''
-''This was faked.''

-As for the "collisions" photography, which Tyler claimed would change the face of photography forever, photographers came out and explained that the technique had been in use for decades:
-''Tyler Shields Collisions is nothing more than a double exposure of sorts. All he is doing is projecting two images onto a projector screen and take a photo of the resulting double image. ''
-''This is not original, people have been doing this for decades.''
+Many Theories have been made as to how he creates images but none are known to be fact
-''Proof:
+"Shields will not reveal"
-You can clearly see this in some of the shots where the lenticular pattern of the projector screen shows up.''
+''You can also see this in the behavior of the light and photos, the light areas where white light can show through washes out dark areas of the other photo. ''
+''photo where the white wall behind the subjects legs washes out the middle of the mouth in the other photo.''
-''You can also see this in the behavior of the light and photos, the light areas where white light can show through washes out dark areas of the other photo. This is very apparent in the "mouth" ''
-''photo where the white wall behind the subjects legs washes out the middle of the mouth in the other photo.''
