Marius Kurkinski

200 hits on Google. Created by anon, so most likely vanity. →Iñgólemo← (talk) 07:49, 2004 Dec 2 (UTC)

  • Delete: Unverifiable, probable vanity, not notable. Geogre 04:15, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Read the rewrite, and it's better. I'm not sure, though, that he's notable. We don't plug in all actors who make it into a movie (the woman who was a Playmate and plays "Dog's girlfriend" doesn't get in). Still unable to change my vote, because I'm not sure what the awards are for. Being invited to compete at a show is not that striking. Winning is much more so. Geogre 19:38, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Mikkalai 04:32, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Number of Google hits is not a good guide to the notability of people from countries that are underrepresented on the web. Looking at some of the pages about him, he does seem to be an actor of some note.Dr Zen 06:38, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • This is the problem of these countries. In such cases the issue is verifiability. Mikkalai 08:13, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
      • There are other means of verifying than simply surfing the web, Mikkalai.Dr Zen 00:38, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Google actually gives 1,130 hits (possibly more) when a search including cyrillic is done[1] (although there may possibly be others of the same name). In any case, he is clearly a well-known Bulgarian actor, who is unlikely to create a substub on himself on the English Wikipedia out of "vanity" and who would without doubt deserve an article. However, the present "article" ("Male Bulgarian pop singer and actor.") doesn't give anything more than anyone searching for him would already know. Keep if expanded. / up+land 10:33, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable, although lesser-known. utcursch 11:57, Dec 3, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Have fleshed out the article with info from Internet Movie Database 1 and from a brief Google search to form a stub. This guy was on the list of notable Bulgarians. Main argument against is whether a notable Bulgarian actor not as well known in English speaking countries warrants an article but his record suggests he probably does.

  • Keep. I have come to the conclusion that this is a worthy article. →Iñgólemo← (talk) 16:23, 2004 Dec 3 (UTC)
  • Keep. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 19:23, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. He is a very well known actor in Bulgaria. --webkid 21:33, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
