For some reason this page failed to notice that pages for Duane Hanson and J. Seward Johnson, Jr. exist. 68.167.250.129 22:02, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)

This page does need to be edited manually. It's not like a category page. Lee M 10:28, 18 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

I am about to start whacking

sculptors who are listed here in red. A googling of sculpture and deJagger, for example, pulls up only the various versions of this list that are out there. Some of the red are artists that I'm aware of, but my feeling is that this should be a list of sculptors in wikipedia not a list of the great, near greats and any wannabe who want to be. deJagger goes first, then others.

I just took both * Rossella Cosentino and * Matteo Civitali (1436-1501) out since this list only is concerned with sculptors in blue. Right? Carptrash 18:02, 30 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
And I am about the remove a bunch more red entries. Some are no doubt real sculptors, but this list is just to link to wikipedia articles. If you must add tnames, at least make it a stub.
I've gone through Rupert Gunnis' Dictionary to glean all the English sculptors with a more-than-page-long entry. Not all were redlinks, as it turns out. These are all sculptors, 1660-1840, who should have a notice in Wikipedia. If not I've wasted a few hours. --Wetman 08:50, 16 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

the begining of this page is

"This is a partial list of sculptors.'

I am going to change it to "This is a partial list of sculptors who have articles about them in wikipedia. It is an index of sculptors in wikipedia.
I might add "If you add a name of a sculptor and it appears in red type then it will be removed. Feel free to create a short article (called a stub ) and then the artist's name will appear in blue and it will stay on the list.

Any thoughts? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Carptrash (talkcontribs) 02:39, 4 November 2006.

Well I appreciate the idea, but unfortunately it would be contrary to Wikipedia:Avoid self-references -- Solipsist 07:18, 16 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sounds good to me!

In addition I find it extremely tacky that some very commercial folks (that nobody will remember 10 years after they are dead) are on this list with a URL of a web site selling their "art". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bronze sculptor (talkcontribs) 04:39, 16 November 2006.

Totally agree with you there, removing self promotion and autobiography is a constant chore, much like reverting vandalism and the List of xxx articles are a magnet for it. You might like to consider joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam. There is a comment at the top of the page, but many people still don't notice it. -- Solipsist 07:23, 16 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

I just moved Carlo Marcucci (1962-)

to the place in the alphabet where he belonged. However looking at the article, Carlo Marcucci , and the doubtes expressed by others have led me about to the point of deleting it. However, I thought I'd post here first. Any thoughts? Carptrash 23:05, 10 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thomas R. Gould

Where is Thomas R. Gould whose "West Wind" is used to illustrate the article on marble sculpture? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.252.37.241 (talk) 14:09, 18 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Do ceramists belong here?

Folks such as Howard Kottler? I am inclined to say "NO", but will wait to hear from you before removing him. And perhaps others. Carptrash (talk) 14:34, 25 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Absolutely YES he belongs here... ceramics is the medium, his work is sculptural. Theroadislong (talk) 14:59, 25 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Mico Kaufman (1924-2016): notable sculptor, no article yet

Recently deceased Romanian-born American sculptor Mico Kaufman is notable for having designed four inaugural medals and has executed commemorative works in public places. See bio content here and other reliable sources on the web. He also recently published an autobiography. -- Deborahjay (talk) 19:05, 17 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Deleted entry

I just placed this here: Template:Ill (1904–1990), Italy which in my mind should be on the list. A notable artist who has an article in another language. However, someone else thought better and reversed me. FWIW, there are a lot of artists that exits in other languages, like Template:Ill. Perhaps you should list them here? --evrik (talk) 15:36, 7 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Shahid Sajjad

Hello editors, Shahid Sajjad (1936-2014) was a notable and highly respected Pakistani sculptor. I would like to propose adding his name to this page. He has an article here already, but this needs some improvement. Please have a look to see if he can be included. Many Thanks! JuzYa1 (talk) 18:44, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Vincenzo Cinque (1852-1992), Italy

Hello, Vincenzo Cinque (1852-1992), Italy, too old; perhaps 1929.--Kani (talk) 09:05, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
