Serdar Saygı

This chap is a Turkish director, writer, illustrator and photographer who lives in Istanbul. So there are four claims of notability. Verifiably, he takes photographs, and his website shows at least one illustration. For a writer, his website presents an amazing lack of writing. Perhaps he makes videos; some are linked. However, I can't see any substantive discussion of any of this. True, I can't read Turkish, but my question about him at WP Turkey was greeted with silence. Well, he's only 25; it's hardly surprising if he's not yet much known. Hoary (talk) 02:10, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete no mention at the Turkish wikipedia or even an IMDB listing, so the claims of being an influential director are questionable at best. Also, the article verges on being an outright advertisement. Direct quote: "Method of working and technical perfectionism takes his works to a different level."
