speedy deletion tag removal

the article claims he was a director of an Art school and was one of "Azerbaijan's greatest artists", each of which are a basis to meet wp:n. the article is somewhat supported by a cursory google search, [1] and requires further analysis and research. Sincerely, --Pink Bull 15:24, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It has no references whatsoever. Earlier, another version of the same article was speedily deleted for copyright infringement. While no longer blatantly ripping off the source of his information, it's a pity the author is still unable to provide credit. Mephistophelian (talk) 15:31, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sources were just added, which unequivically establish notability. I'm unaware of any copyvio at this time.Sincerely,--Pink Bull 15:42, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's basically the text you find when clicking the first reference, albeit heavily shortened. _noisy jinx ^huh? 16:05, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed that as well and it is problematic. I will rectify that now. --Pink Bull 16:12, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the original page was just the text from the first source, but without the source being mentioned. Add the usual Biography heading, rewrite a little and you should've just about rescued the article. Mephistophelian (talk) 16:14, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I removed everything except for the heading, which should suffice for now.--Pink Bull 16:18, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pic

Commons has a drawing by Azimzade [2], but I don't know the context and am unfamiliar with picture formatting at articles. --Pink Bull 16:46, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In this picture you can see a caricature by Azim Azimzade in monthly Azerbaijani magazine Molla Nasreddin. I can also tell about this caricature: In early XX century in Azerbaijan a new modern medcines were not so popular by quack doctors of that time. He expose their charlantry, backwardness, and ignorance of their medical knowledge. In this caricature Azimzade show this backwardness of quacks using type of Emir Bukhara (fat red man). Dialoge below:

Azerbaijani

بخاراي شريف
آنجاق زمانه معارفي
بخارا اميري - حکيم، خسته لغي نه در؟
حکيم - بيچاره نك بيني چوخدان قورتلانوب، تيز علاج لازم، يوخسا چوخ سورمز هلاك اولار.
امير - علاجي؟
حکيم - بو شيشه ده کي دوا ايله تميزله ملي.
امير - وزرا و علما ايله گرك مصلحت ايده م.

Translate

Bukhara is holy
But the time is enlightenment
Emir of Bukhara - Doctor, what is his illness?
Doctor - This unlucky is almost dead, without a new remedy he can not live longer
Emir - remedy?
Doctor - Cleaning with this medicine in bottle is needed
Emir - remedy(?) and scholar(?), my advises are better

Something like that. --Interfase (talk) 22:55, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here you can find another caricatures of Azim Azimzade. --Interfase (talk) 23:00, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much. I see you put in a picture of Azimzade himself, which makes sense prioritorially.--Pink Bull 19:58, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I was mistaken. This picture was made by I. Rotter, not by Azimzadeh. --Interfase (talk) 07:45, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There appears to be an edit war regarding the wikilinks on years. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Linking policy appears not to support links for years. --Pink Bull 07:16, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Flagging For Fan-Like Article

This article is written less as a biography than a haigography. From its relentless repetition of the artist's full name (which I have just corrected) to its breathless praise, it may require a rewriting to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. It also seems to share his apparently Soviet worldview.
