Please write Articles, not Resumes edit

This article is a mess. Could someone who is interested in Heller's work go through and prune the absurd lists of his works to the ones that are notable. Maybe the Looking Closer series, and a few others. This needs to be an article, not a regurgitation of Heller's resume. UnkleFester (talk) 05:28, 7 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

I agree with UnkleFester that there is far too much listing of books here, especially because Heller has written so many, especially because almost all of them are edited or coauthored. We really should just have the important ones here. The other area that could be removed entirely is the Introductions and Afterwards... and also the individual articles in Baseline. My students are working on editing WP in our History of Design and Digital Media class, and possibly one of them will take on this article. Theredproject (talk) 16:17, 15 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
Agreed. I found the lists excessive, unreferenced, unencyclopaedic so they have been removed. If every article written, every collaborative work, every exhibition contributed to (without references) for every subject, this website would soon just become an intolerable repository, which is what this article felt like.Rayman60 (talk) 22:35, 22 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
