Picture[edit]

This guy is only notable because of his physical appearance, so for this article to remain, it surely needs a picture.

Initial posts[edit]

Hulggg! Sound of me vomiting. How the hell does this idiot deserve a job much less a mention in wiki?

While you may find him nauseating (I'm not too thrilled by him either), I hardly think he classifies as an idiot. From reading the FAQ on his strike it's obvious he has put a lot of thought into his decision to transform himself into "The Lizardman". It was his choice to do what he did and does, and from what I can see his existence is known (at least to various communities of people) and almost certainly worthy of mention. Prejudice and personal feelings have no place in article alteration - objectivity and accuracy are what we're concerned with.

Also, Erik Sprague was in the process of finishing his Ph.D. when he made the decision to undergo this transformation. Can you say as much, before you call him an idiot?

2 things..

How about moving the page to 'The Lizardman', it would make more sense, as thats his 'profesional name', much like calling the page on Marilyn Manson, Marilyn manson, not Brian Warner.

How about a picture or two?

Picture[edit]

I'm going to second the request for a picture. If this article is worth inclusion, it deserves a picture, particularly considering the content matter.

Moving[edit]

Someone moved this page to lizardman body modification artist. The lizardman, Erik, has NEVER been a body modification artist. Please keep this page where it is.
