- More from the Lennie Lee camp. - Lucky 6.9 21:08, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Unless this is a created or invented movement - it should be kept. It is badly written and needs clean up otherwise. --Oldak Quill 21:18, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- No Google hits for "Extreme Performance," at least none relating to this group. No hits for "Extreme Performance lenny lee." There have been a lot of these suspect articles cropping up today that mention this guy. - Lucky 6.9 22:11, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Obviously it's some sort of Lenny Lee fan making these additions, but I've heard much about the authenticity of these "extreme performances". This page should definitely added upon though. If you're looking for proof these types of performances exist, check out GG Allen. --Marlowe 22:53, Jun 17, 2004 (UTC)
By the grace of God, I'll remember my sig one of these days. --Marlowe 22:53, Jun 17, 2004 (UTC)
- LOL! That you, Marlowe? - Lucky 6.9 22:59, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Unsigned votes don't count, my friend. And I've never said the performer/performances don't exist. There is simply no substantial proof and Wikipedia entries require a degree of notability.- Lucky 6.9 22:40, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)- Comment: I checked "Extreme Performance Lennie Lee" when I realized I misspelled the name. Three hits, one of which goes back to the guy's own site. Other two are not exact matches. - Lucky 6.9 22:57, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- I added a note about an almost verbatim version of the same thing at Extreme Performance Art. If one goes, the other should, or vice versa. Looks like self-promotion to me. --Lexor|Talk
- Keep Extreme Performance Art. I've redirected Extreme Performance to the former. Although these articles were originally written as promo material for Lennie Lee and Zhu Yu, the term is more widely applicable. I've struck out the promo links & what's left is a reasonable stub.

- Well done, Wile. That's what I call "extreme performance"! Denni☯ 22:46, 2004 Jun 20 (UTC)
- Oh, I don't really deserve much credit. The article already had the historical stuff; I just erased a couple of promo links and put in a link for the Jim Rose Circus. Wile E. Heresiarch 04:31, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

- Looking good. In fact, Our Lennie added himself to the legitimate "Extreme Performance Art" page. Keep new and useful redirect. - Lucky 6.9 16:25, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Extreme performance art has been growing since the early 1960's. Recently there was a programme on extreme Chinese performance art by critic Waldemar Januszak watched by around one million people (a lot for a documentary). One of the artists Zhu Yu was described as the Damien Hirst of the Chinese art scene. He is well known throughout the world for eating a human foetus as art. The Chinese government had a meeting to discuss extreme performance art whih they see as a political threat
