Talk:Schwa (art)

Coonfirmation

While I admit the fact that the contact information from Compuwatcher is compelling, the fact that Barker no longer uses his original P.O. box might be as much to blame for the registry information going through a different source. Can anybody gain information from Compuwatcher or the Tim McFall contact person if this will have anything to do with the original Bill Barker Schwa properties? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.196.60.26 (talk) 03:19, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

If the P.O. Box hasn't belonged to Barker for years, it of course wouldn't be registered to that address. Barker has always done Schwa Corporate stuff semi-anonymously. Is there some reason why the information about it being registered to a third party is even relevant? If no rationale exists for its mention that isn't par for the course for Barker, it should be removed. --98.198.173.247 (talk) 06:52, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

I just noted that Compuwatcher owns two other Schwa-related sites (schwapyramid.com and schwareturns.com). Whether this makes his inclusion any more relevant or not, I leave that up to you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.125.91.69 (talk) 04:20, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Whereabouts

--can someone verify and cite this?

I can verify that the statement edited out was completely false as to facts of whereabout and current status of Mr. Barker and constitutes libel. WIlliam is currently working on a continuation of the brilliant series SCHWA and COUNTERSCHWA----WATCH FOR IT ! ! !

I have found William Barker on Facebook where he has a page devoted to The Schwa Corporation and other artwork. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100003030188635 I don't know how it would be best to include this information in the page but it does seem as though he has resurfaced.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

(Internet) History

"Barker also created and ran a (now defunct) labyrinthine website early in the days of the browser-based internet." 'early days of the browser-based internet' is pretty poor wording. How about 'early days of the world-wide-web'? 72.94.237.189 (talk) 23:37, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

This site lists Tim Mcfall as the owner. Was Bill Barker a pseudonym. Is this guy just stealing his work? Is this run by the publishers of the 90's books?--151.213.209.168 (talk) 19:40, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
