 * Thx. This artist is totally non-notable. I have included my tailored version of the not-yet-accepted WP:Notability (artists) on the talk page. Jane (talk) 08:43, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

 * See also article deletion discussion on dewiki 8 Maart 2012:de:Wikipedia:Löschkandidaten/8._März_2012 -- this looks like multi-project spam. Jane (talk) 12:29, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
 * See also the article deletion discussion on eswiki: es:Wikipedia:Consultas de borrado/Mario Zampedroni. There they discovered that Sergey Zagraevsky is the sole source, and this person is himself totally non-notable (a member of a "Russian art critics academy" with total 40 members is not notable unless the art he has critized made the news, which is not the case here) Jane (talk) 07:21, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. The United Art Rating, one of the sources of the article, is smth Zagraevsky created basically himself and published at his website. It can not create notability in any sense.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:27, 2 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete Part of a Walled garden series of articles. United Art Rating not a reliable source for determining notability (itself being NN). -- Green Cardamom (talk) 15:43, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:DIRECTORY and WP:VSCA. I don't see a walled garden, nor do I have a problem with paid editing per se. However, the subject's claim to fame is rather tenuous – "one of 10,000" doesn't inspire much confidence, and there's precious little out there on this artist. --  Ohc  ¡digame!¿que pasa? 03:07, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
 * A "Wikipedia Walled Garden" usually has articles linking back to them. This article's primary source use the United Art Rating as a primary source without linking to it. If you search with this rating in the references of articles you will find the walled garden. Jane (talk) 07:15, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
