The result was delete. Because of the massive COI and sourcing concerns. A recreation by somebody who is not the subject using reliable sources is conceivable.  Sandstein  12:00, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment The person might actually be notable for receiving awards like "Philanthropist 2018" and for recognition by Russian Book of Records for his YT trailer edits, however the current article is a huge mess with a bunch of unreliable sources and a very obvious WP:COI editing by a subject of this article (who appear to have also created this article using his previous Commandos-rus account and who has tried to WP:CANVASS other editors here to help with this AfD nomination) so I am not sure if it's worth keeping in its current state. I'll avoid voting for now.Omgwtfbbqsomethingrandom (talk) 18:47, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for comment! Yeah, commandos-rus it's me, i'm guilty. But try to understand me: bipolar disorder has brought me a lot of troubles, I can say, I have been depressed for several years, every day for several hours I have no a desire to live. Therefore, in order to partially compensate for my condition, I decided to create an article about myself. I really like your site and I'm glad that I can create useful articles about movies and localities. I hope for your understanding... Nikolai Kurbatov (talk) 04:32, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I understand, but guidelines like WP:COI apply to everyone, regardless of your disability and how severe it is. If you really wanted an article about yourself and your achievements - you should've asked other people, preferably outside of Wikipedia, to write it, with plenty of reliable sources (here is a useful guideline about reliable sources: WP:RS) and you should definitely AVOID voting in AfD nominations involving articles about yourself.Omgwtfbbqsomethingrandom (talk) 04:50, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I thought, there is no difference between writing about myself and asking other people... Nikolai Kurbatov (talk) 06:08, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep per WP:NEXIST as there are non-primary sources available. Whether or not it's enough to pass WP:GNG, I'd like to see what others think. Handoto (talk) 17:30, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:COI and WP:GNG.--Darwinek (talk) 19:56, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
