Way too much copyrighted material in the footnotes. No excuse for this. Editor should have used his own words. Also, one blockquote is attributed to to different sources. How is this? MathewTownsend ( talk) 16:55, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
In the Drowning Girl the water is not only Art Nouveau, but it can also be seen as Hokusai. I don't do it just because it is another reference. Cartooning itself sometimes resembles other periods in art – perhaps unknowingly ... They do things like the little Hokusai waves in the Drowning Girl. But the original wasn't very clear in this regard – why should it be I was it and then pushed it a little further until it was a reference that most people will gett ... it is a way of crystallizing the style by exaggeration.

Waldman 1993 is also quoted extensively in other, related articles, e.g. Yellow and Green Brushstrokes, Girl with Ball, Whaam!, Bedroom at Arles, Girl in Mirror, Artist's Studio—Look Mickey, Little Big Painting, Drowning Girl, Big Painting No. 6 and others.
There are other excessively long quotes from other authors. Most of these quotes are completely unnecessary and could easily have been reworded by the editor. A few choice quotes would be much more effective. Also, there are many unnecessary quotes in the article itself.
Other authors are also extensively quoted, here and in other articles on a series of works by Lichtenstein. Is this really ok? MathewTownsend ( talk) 17:11, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
The work is considered[weasel words] one of the highlights of the core collection of the Museum of Modern Art...(42)
I'm sorry but this is total nonsense..Perhaps this is someone's - Wright, Carol V - opinion - however it is absurd, and certainly not neutral or encyclopedic. Van Gogh's Starry Night, Matisse's Dance, Picasso Les Demoiselles D'Avignon, the large Pollock, Rodin's Balzac, and dozens of other works... Modernist ( talk) 22:25, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
Came across this reinvention of the painting, would it be notable to mention or link to recreations of the artwork on various web sites like this? Ranze ( talk) 09:37, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
This is not an article primarily about Lichtenstein. We have an article Roy Lichtenstein. Some references to Lichtenstein and some references to other works of art by Lichtenstein are permissible in this article. But there is point beyond which that sort of material becomes extraneous. I've removed what I consider to be such material from the lede. Is there an argument for leaving it in the lede? Bus stop ( talk) 03:19, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
