The main problem with Draft:Rostislav Krimer is that it is plagiarized from http://www.bashmet-festival.com/eng/festival_info/rostislavkrimer
This is unacceptable and means that any discussion of the merits of the subject are pointless. Wikipedia does not accept text that violate the copyright of others. A translation of the Russian Wikipedia article (assuming this is an original work and not copied from somewhere else) would be more acceptable, although I cannot promise that a new draft would be accepted. I will ask somebody better able to judge this.
Another point needs to be made: Wikipedia articles need to be written in a neutral style (see WP:NPOV). That excludes promotional language such as "has been impressing audiences and critics with his brilliant pianism and sensitive musicality" (which is not in the Russian Wikipedia, as far as I can tell using Google Translate), unless it happens to be a quote from some indisputable authority, such as a well-known musical critic for a major newspaper or a musician of far greater fame and merit than Krimer (if you can quote somebody like Daniel Barenboim or Valery Gergiev saying this, it would be fine). --Hegvald (talk) 08:11, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
I have requested comments on the article at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Classical music. --Hegvald (talk) 09:17, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
