A previous G12 failed because the SPA that created the article took out the tag. There seem to have been some changes, but the article is nothing short of a promotional disaster. User:Sosnmash is the main editor, along with his IP, the original speedy, and someone adding the Living people category.

 * Comment. The nomination statement leaves me very unsure of what reason is being proposed for deletion. Is it as a copyright violation? For being promotional? Because of who wrote it? Phil Bridger (talk) 14:51, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It's the article's promotional nature. Raymie (t • c) 03:03, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 * We do not have expectations that new editors spring out of the womb knowing how to write articles. When an article's perceived tone appears to be an addressable issue it does not automatically mean it must be deleted simply for being poorly written.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Keep As a screenplay writer, he appears to be notable; as a collector he is probably notable as well. We'd need some help from a Russian-speaking editor to clean up the article, but this seems to satisfy notability requirements.  freshacconci  talk talk  13:56, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep His work is notable, he playing a key role in notable productions as the writer. Dead Season (film) and The Queen of Spades (1982 film)] are two of his films which have articles on the English speaking Wikipedia already, and other language Wikipedias have articles about his other films.

 * Keep But the grammar needs effort, and there are several opportunities to add links, and the tone is too flattering. I tagged it for copyedit. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:03, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
