(Some of) the following references may be useful.

This has all been sitting in my userspace for 2 months and I don't have time to trawl through them again right now! -- Trevj (talk) 12:03, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

And here are another couple about the 2012 event:

DARN, sorry I should have checked the talk page first...lots of excellent resources. I have expanded the 2012 part of the article but we can most def improve it. I will commit time at the weekend to help...Zoebuggie☺whispers 20:49, 4 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Nice one. The 2012 list looks a little as if it gives undue weight but we'll see how things look in the longer term. I guess it could possibly be split out to a sub-article. -- Trevj (talk) 08:57, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Ty :) A split maybe a good idea, using the resources you provided above we can expand upon the 2011 event, would you like to do it or shall I have a go if you wish. I am not sure about were the undue weight is but feel free to improve 2012....Zoebuggie☺whispers 09:52, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I'd like to help do it. But no, I won't be able to devote time to it for the foreseeable future. I just meant undue in terms of page space occupied - notable artists can be linked to, and IMO non-notable ones (for the moment) should be referred (with references)... but including a summary of each artist within this article seems a little OTT for me. Perhaps others would disagree. Cheers, anyway. -- Trevj (talk) 11:29, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
I am relatively new to wikipedia editing, my thoughts were as its online and not on paper space is not really a problem. Plus I am hindered by an inability to make decisions :) and I am rather forgetful/unknowledgeable regards who are the more important artists. However over next weekend I will look at adding links to other wikipedia articles and do a little online searching. Plus I am thinking of making the notes more uniform ...Style: xxx. Influence: xxx. See No Evil work: xxx etc ...which will help remove any copy/paste editing I did there....Zoebuggie☺whispers 12:17, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Overall I think the redlinks are useful for now, though I've removed one (Hannah) that is clearly unlikely to cut the mustard. I've been able to write articles on Nick Walker and ROA as a result. The participants are all sourced to news articles, so we have clear evidence they exist, per WP:LISTPEOPLE. The potted biographies, well, they aren't excessive and (in the absence of a separate article) of some use. Just needs someone to make sure they don't get any bigger!

Who's Lenny? edit

This edit was reverted. Some appropriate refs if anyone wants to include the material are as follows.

Copy/pasting copyrighted text edit

Unfortunately, it seems that there has been some copy/pasting and close paraphrasing in the editing of this article. This could mean copyright violations, which are excluded by our Terms of Use. Some examples sources are http://www.creativebloq.com/street-art/bristols-see-no-evil-street-art-festival-812572, http://www.seenoevilbristol.co.uk/2012/08/18/vyal/. Is there any more suspect content introduced with these edits? Thanks. -- Trevj (talk) 09:41, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

I should have made a more thorough rewording throughout,esp on the table notes section....Zoebuggie☺whispers 09:59, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Usually I am quite good at combining lots of different sources, but I will happily go through the rest of the text @ the weekend and find a better balance between No Original Work and any Close Paraphrasing (must admit the later guideline was new to me ;) ). Its a work in progress......Zoebuggie☺whispers 12:23, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

2011 and 2012 edit

2012: I have reworded, shuffled, cleaned up, added uniform style to the table, expanded on Inkie's entry. This is a live encyclopaedia, so its a work in progress.

2011: Using the resources above, I am now planning to expand the original 2011 event. It will take a couple of weeks. --...Zoebuggie☺whispers 17:20, 7 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

I will include Who's Lenny.--...Zoebuggie☺whispers 19:23, 7 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Did You Know edit

Now this has been expanded quite significantly, this article would be an excellent candidate for WP:DYK. We need to think of a good 'hook' line. The obvious one would be See No Evil "is Europe's largest open air street art gallery". Did I see somewhere that is contained the [insert geographical area here]'s largest mural? Sionk (talk) 11:02, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Actually, looking at the article again, a large proportion of it is made up of the reflist. It's unlikely the prose element alone has been expanded five-fold in the last few days (as is required by DYK). Sionk (talk) 11:19, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
(edit conflict) It'd need a 5x expansion within a 5-day period, wouldn't it? It doesn't look to me as if that's been managed   -- Trevj (talk) 11:20, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yep, looks like we're 1 day too late. It's a ridiculously tight deadline, but I guess more applicable to tiny stubs that have been expanded. There are still some sourcing issues to iron out too. Oh well! Sionk (talk) 13:23, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Most of the citations fixed apart from the original one. (They were there on top of the tables, next to sources..I guess that might be unorthodox )...I Will add a little more ancillary stuff in next few days if my stoopid computer lets me. Re biggest mural...its a combination of Nick Walkers 2011 and SheOne 2012....Zoebuggie☺whispers 16:11, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
