I have moved this info to this article to prevent the 'vandalism' that occurs on the Michael Kirby (Australian jurist) article. Please use this for the artist. Doktor Waterhouse 14:18, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs sources

Could the IP editor who removed them please restore the citations needed tags on the article. This article needs sources otherwise it can be nominated for deletion. In particular the article doesn't have any sources that back up the many claims made of Michael Kirby's notability and the facts surrounding them. Removing the tags requesting them doesn't help it gain any.

I have also removed the paragraph added about Kirby to Street painting. Again, there aren't any cites that backup the claims that Kirby is significant to the subject, above that of the many other street artists listed on Wikipedia. What does knowing about Kirby in particular add to the reader's understanding of street painting?

Could I also direct the IP editor to Wikipedia guidelines regarding conflict of interests. Do they have any connection with Michael Kirby and are they the best person to be contributing to Wikipedia about him? --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 21:51, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Further edits to this page by User:108.22.237.228. Further addition of ;

peacocking ("Michael William Kirby is a leading public artist and street painter")
weaselly opinions ("Today Michael Kirby is considered a master", "Michael Kirby is considered a leader in this rising art form" - considered by who? Can you cite them?)
More uncited stuff
