Expert review[edit]

This review has been announced on the talk page of WikiProject LGBT studies. Comments should be added on this page, below.

As part of the Notability wikiproject, I am trying to sort out whether this topic is notable enough to have its own article. Could you have a look at it? The article is desperately lacking sources, and none have been added since March. If you know of news coverage, etc. about him (not publications by him), please add them to the page. If no sources can be found, there's not much option other than deleting the article.

Your opinions are welcome; please add your comments below. --B. Wolterding 13:53, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SILENCE = DEATH[edit]

I haven't found any record of Finkelstein's involvement in the "Silence=Death Project", which is the group of six men who designed said logo. One lead I haven't been able to follow is:

Reed, T. V. (2005), The Art Of Protest: Culture And Activism From The Civil Rights Movement To The Streets of Seattle, University of Minnesota Press, ISBN 0816637709

which looks promising. I'll keep searching. If Finkelstein is indeed the creator of the logo, that would definitely make him notable. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 15:22, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Found an article in the Village Voice and cited it. The Voice's website doesn't provide the article, but an abstract can be found here. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 15:36, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - I will remove the notability tag then. More sources would still improve the article, of course. --B. Wolterding 13:49, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
