DELETE ALL The copyrights for all of these images are attributed to "Mark Breed", and several of them contain his name either in the caption or within the image itself. They were all uploaded by ArtHistorianEmeritus, claiming he holds the copyright (ergo, self-promotion) and added to photography [1], Pop art [2], Cleveland [3], List of fetish artists [4] and list of people from Ohio [5] with such self-aggrandizing and self-promotional drivel as: "Marc Breed has become Ohio's most prominent fine artist." and "Having twice turned down overtures for a solo show from the Louvre, Marc Breed has become Ohio's best known artist internationally."
Warnings have been placed on ArtHistorianEmeritus userpage and his self-promotional advertising has been reverted by multiple editors. There is nothing noteworthy about these images, nor the contributions by the editor User:ArtHistorianEmeritus or the "artist" Mark Breed. Recommend immediate deletion of all images and block of this user from further vandalization. NotaBene 23:28, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
