Dinmukhamet Akhimov

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article on Kazakh actor. Ghits under the name in the article turned up zero ghits; author then provided two alternate spellings, corresponding to two different actor listings in IMDB. It's not clear whether this is a real person or not. Even so, under the alternate spellings most are generic movie listing sites, and no coverage of the actor, odd if he does indeed have a medal and has acted in high-profile films like "Inhabited Island." Originally a DB-hoax, moving to AfD to get more input from hopefully more knowledgeable people. Mr. Vernon (talk) 06:50, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Neutral AfD was my suggestion. We need people who know more about Kazakhstan. Seb az86556 (talk) 06:53, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Since none of mine notes were read, I do not want to rewrite or copy already written information in talk-section (Dinmukhamet_Akhimov), because of lack of logic and perhaps laziness from certain individuals who review written information.

Nevertheless, in short, we have an actor whose first name is incorrecly written in web and public articles. Most of the times he is called by his alias (which is Dimash -- instead of original Dinmukhamet) Moderator mentioned "Inhabited Island" movie, even thou article for the film is already posted here - he (for some unknown reasons) did not even looked through the cast, where he can see named actor (Dimash Akhimov as Begemot). All information came officially from the actor himself, with all roles and past experiences, which I thought would be an easy and pleasant task to do - adding to Wikipedia, but it turned out as a lame struggle of interests.

Where were such moderators when in the article about Kazakhstan Republic everyone could see Borat as a president? Perhaps just for the laughs, it is much more appropriate to host such stuff in here. Good thing is things are changing, and we can see some proper information now.

Proof:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0015255/

http://www.fandango.com/dinmukhamedakhimov/filmography/p244585

or by alias:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1068543/

http://www.fandango.com/dimashakhimov/filmography/p244584

(Doesn't it feel strange that ID on fandango.com, goes by one digit from p244584 to p244585? Coincidence, sure...)

In both IMDB entries there is a same movie: "Bo Ba Bu" Also on the page itself Dinmukhamet Akhimov, his alias has been mentioned first of all.

P.S. If you are so eager to write another incorrect spelling of his name, so be it.

Ghits: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=dinmukhamed+akhimov&aq=f&oq=&aqi= (162)

or by alias: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=dimash+akhimov&aq=f&oq=&aqi= (336)

It was mentioned before by mr. moderator that there is no proof of owning of "Kurmet" medal,

 * Keep This link demonstrates notability. --Russavia Dialogue 21:31, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment From the above, it looks as if the article could be improved by adding sources that might well show it is verifiable and notable. But if those improvements are not made, it should be deleted. It can always be recreated later with sources, and presumably would survive the second AfD if the sources showed notability. Better to make the improvements now. We are discussing the article, not the potential article. Aymatth2 (talk) 01:39, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
 * True. Flagged it for Rescue. Seb az86556 (talk) 01:48, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I have structured the article a bit and added the sources identified above. Weak. He has played in a lot of movies, but apparently not in major roles. He got a Kurmet medal, but they seem to be handed out quite freely. One interview and that's it. It needs more to establish notability. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:50, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep - This IMDB profile is him - there has apparently been some confusion in the non-standard transliteration of his name from Cyrillic into Latin script.  I am creating a redirect to this article for the spelling that appears in IMDB.  --AStanhope (talk) 13:17, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable nough to have an article --Notedgrant (talk) 00:14, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep He is a real person, not a hoax. He has a notable filmography, and is notable enough to have an article.   D r e a m Focus  02:23, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
