Pascin or Pincas?[edit]

Going on his original name I'm editing out the Pincas. Julia Rossi (talk) 08:02, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pincas was his original surname; I have restored it but removed this unsourced sentence: "His original name was Paskinian, and some ancestors connected to this family exist in Sofia, Bulgaria." So far, none of the books/articles I've checked in last 6 mo. support the Paskinian claim; Google Scholar gives zero results for Pascin +Paskinian. Ewulp (talk) 03:51, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lede[edit]

Does anyone object to some fixes to the lede as moving the important information about Pascin - that he was a prominent painter. currently, we have a hotch-potch list of his ethnic descent and the place where he was born. I see no reason why the part about him being "born of Italian Serbian mother and Spanish Jewish father, in Principality of Bulgaria" should clutter the lede. --Laveol ^T 12:12, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say go ahead, this article certainly needs some work. Ewulp (talk) 01:49, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
