User:70.131.87.242 added a paragraph about 'widespread beliefs' about the actor's death. Without any references, this simply does not belong in WP (see WP:V), so I have commented it out. If you can produce references demonstrating that such-and-such is widely reported or believed, feel free to restore the paragraph, with references. --ColinFine 23:01, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Mcrtchan.jpg
Image:Mcrtchan.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Frunzik Mkrtchyan → Mher Mkrtchyan – WP:COMMONNAME Ե րևանցի  talk  05:14, 27 January 2014 (UTC) Although he is usually credited Frunzik in many (and perhaps most movies), two of the most authoritative sources available online both use Mher Mkrtchyan: Plus, as User:Zyzzzzzy has noted on my talk page, the street in Yerevan, a postage stamp issue on his memoiry use "Mher" instead of "Frunzik". Although these don't really prove it's commonality, they are important. -- Ե րևանցի talk  05:14, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Library of Congress
 * Soviet Armenian Encyclopedia
 * Oppose — See: IMDB Profil, The New York Times, Amozon... Maurice07 (talk) 21:44, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
 * And none of these is as authoritative as the sources I provided above. -- Ե րևանցի talk  21:59, 5 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose. The nomination is based on a reliance on authority, whereas Wikipedia's naming policy relies on the most common usage in English-language reliable sources: see WP:COMMONNAME. The Soviet Armenian Encyclopedia is not even an English-language source, so we can discount that one entirely.
 * A Google Books search shows the two forms to have similar prominence:
 * "Frunzik Mkrtchyan"-wikipedia 31 hits
 * "Mher Mkrtchyan" -wikipedia 34 hits
 * That's too close to make any distinction. In the absence of other indicators, I am prefer to follow the New York Times and use Frunzik. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:02, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Peer Review
Great job so far! Good intro paragraph - clear, direct, and short with all the pertinent information. Biography info seems important, but it also seems similar to information put in the Career and Personal Life section, so maybe you could put the Biography info into those other two sections? Otherwise it seems a little redundant or unclear the differences between those sections. Great job including links to his works! Lastly, be careful not to be too biased ("beloved actor") because it can sound a little more opinionated than I think you mean (maybe "he was very popular" or "he was very important to the Armenian community"?) Awesome job so far!!

Great job on the article! I think dividing your article into Early Life and Career as opposed to three separate life related sections would get rid of some of the redundancy. Also, overall quite objective but I noticed " their beloved actor" in the death section. I would omit that; the description of many people attending already conveys the message of popularity. Hope to see what comes next! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haig Cholakian (talk • contribs) 19:31, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

Name
According to the Article in the Russian Wikipedia his official name was Frunze (Фрунзе), chosen by his mother in honour of the Civil War general Mikhail Frunze. Frunzik is a diminutive, as they are often used in Russian colloquial language. Mher is another name he was called, especially at home, but not his official name. --Sundowner (talk) 12:57, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
