Suggestions[edit]

Constituto - some thoughts on how this could be improved further. As I said at the Teahouse, unless I'm missing anything, that documentary is really a sort of extended advert. It's published on the S3 Advertising Agency's Vimeo account, and appears to be promoting the subject's work - I don't think we could rely on it for anything. You're also not using it to support any information about the subject really - the statement in the draft that the source supports is an assertion that the documentary exists, which is kind of circular. I'd remove the whole sentence if I were you.

You should also consider tidying up the refs. They are all bare URLs, which are prone to WP:LINKROT, and also make it more difficult for a reviewer to assess what they're looking at. If you use the 'Cite Web' template, there are lots of additional fields you can fill in - you'd be well-advised to go through each reference and fill those in - while it doesn't impact in any way on the notability question, it will make any reviewer's job easier, and make them better disposed towards the draft.

Pinging CASSIOPEIA and Theroadislong - you both reviewed an early version of this draft. I'm inclined to think that the subject would probably pass WP:NARTIST criterion 4, but I'd appreciate your thoughts on it in its current state. Cheers GirthSummit _(blether) 12:37, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Girth Summit and pinging CASSIOPEIA and Theroadislong, Thank you all for your kind help and advice. I will definitely look at the all the inline citations and fill inn all the information I have. It is really inspiring to get acceptance for my first article, as it is quite a lot to think about and know re. how to write and work in Wikipedia. I am most grateful for your patience and the time you have spent helping me. Best, Constituto (talk) 09:42, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Constituto Thank you for your contribution. CASSIOPEIA^(talk)

Please nominate for deletion[edit]

I can not see that he is wiki-notable as a painter on en-wiki.
Is he any kind of celebrity in Scandinavia? I can not see that either, eventhough there exists at least one photo taken of him and a Scandinavian king.
I support anyone in nominating the article for deletion. (The good news, so to speak, is that there is "room" for the article on smaller wikis.) 89.8.86.153 (talk) 04:56, 8 March 2021 (UTC), 89.8.86.153 (talk) 04:59, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
