Serguei Kouchnerov

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

Animator. Has worked on a number of notable films, but that in and of itself doesn't make him notable (WP:NOTINHERITED), especially as such films have dozens of animators. Ghits are primarily lists of credits to the films he's worked on. Doesn't seem to meet WP:CREATIVE. Mr. Vernon (talk) 01:53, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep as a cursory search has lead me to believe there may be enough to improve the article and show notability. Search as "Serguei Kouchnerov", as "Serguei Koushnerov". Time to do more digging.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 23:01, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - if we had an article for every animator, we'd quickly have enough to rival the actor articles. How is this man notable amongst the army of animators who worked on these films? Should we also include articles for every person who worked in visual effects for ILM, for example? Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 22:48, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment Since I opined the article could be improved, I did so... cleaning it up and expanding per BLP MOS. Being Russian born and making films under the (then) Soviet banner might prove a very notable background if Russian or Ukrainian reading editors might be able to translate available sources. Further, his being chosen to return to Russia to work with Ukranian animators for the Paws and Wires for Umbrella Vision film might also be of note... if translations can be found.

 * Weak keep. The new sources for his current project push him just over the bar of notability in my opinion.  Eluchil404 (talk) 03:06, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
