Questionable notability, was csd-deleted then recreated. Putting it here for community input. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:56, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: from this source I get the impression that this man is a major artist in Azerbaijan. Then again, this other article from the same site claims he exhibited at the Louvre, in an exhibition called "Carrusel [sic] du Louvre", which is actually the name of a shopping mall; that's not a good sign for reliability. Louvre.fr knows of one Mammadov, but not this man. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 09:54, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
- Weak delete per WP:V. Cited sources are not convincingly reliable and I couldn't find better ones. For example, Mammadov never won the Leonardo da Vinci Medal, unless it's a different medal by the same name that I cannot find any information about (neither in English, nor in Italian). Perhaps better sources are available in Russian or Turkish? QVVERTYVS (hm?) 10:30, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

- Delete unless clearer and more convincing sources can be found. The medals in the infobox seem very sketchy re WP:V, and a search finds few reliable sources other than self-published wiki-type sites.New Media Theorist (talk) 17:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
- Commment Here is the low-down on that "Louvre" show. As you say, QVVERTYVS, Carrusel du Louvre is actually a mall attached to the Louvre. They (the mall) had a commercial contemporary art fair, and the article subject appears to have (presumably) rented a booth. New Media Theorist (talk) 17:21, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
