Viktor (film)

 * ... that in the 2014 film Viktor, reviewers noted that Gérard Depardieu's girth made him unlikely as an action hero?
 * Reviewed: PizzaRev
 * Comment: Found this brand new article at AFD, and it was not at all difficult to take a 407 characters (68 words) and expand it to 1653 characters (271 words). More is easily possible.
 * Yup... now at 3094 characters (488 words). Easy.  Schmidt,  Michael Q.

 * Symbol possible vote.svg New enough, long enough, checks for copyvio reveals no problems, QPQ performed. Issues are 1) the article is presently being discussed at AfD and 2) Content in the hook as worded, "made him unlikely as an action hero", is not supported by the sources in the article as per the wording in the article, although the notion is insinuated. As such, I propose ALT1 below. N ORTH A MERICA 1000 07:27, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
 * ALT1: ... that in the 2014 film Viktor, reviewers noted that Gérard Depardieu's girth contributed to humorous aspects of the film?

 * The ALT is fine, and I expect a withdrawal of the erroneous AFD quite soon.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 07:56, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Good to go. The AfD discussion closed as keep. Good to go for ALT1. N ORTH A MERICA 1000 20:33, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

 * ALT2: ... that the 2014 film Viktor was filmed entirely in Russia?
 *  Schmidt,  Michael Q. says Not bad, but a little short. How about just a little more meat... like:
 * AlT 3: ... that starring Gérard Depardieu and Elizabeth Hurley, Philippe Martinez's 2014 action film Viktor was filmed entirely in Russia?
 * Here's an alt4, based on ALT3, along with a shorter alt5. N ORTH A MERICA 1000 03:38, 28 March 2015 (UTC)
 * ALT 4: ... that Philippe Martinez's 2014 action film Viktor, starring Gérard Depardieu and Elizabeth Hurley, was filmed entirely in Russia?
 * ALT 5: ... that Philippe Martinez's 2014 action film Viktor was filmed entirely in Russia?
 * I'm fine with either ALT4 or ALT5. N ORTH A MERICA 1000 03:41, 28 March 2015 (UTC)
