Deletion of Liu Maoshan

Comment: violates  as completely lacking any |reliable and independent sources. Leadership in an artists's guild, closed shop, collective, or labor union does |not confer notability automatically; he's a |glorified shop steward. There is ''zero'' evidence ''any'' of his work appears in any major museum or art gallery anywhere in the Western world, that is, ''the purported subject of his art''! (No, Russia, is not part of the West as far as that genre of art is concerned

Comment: Problem, I see with this article that it's written with highly promotional tone. There are some actual facts, that may maintain notability claim. Article mentions he has works in museum's permanent collections, which is pass per , but I couldn't find any confirmation for this online. Also, these articles in Russian http://re-actor.net/illustration/4033-liu-maoshan-paintings.html and http://izent.ru/posts/tvorcheskoe/hudozhniki/1445/Liu_Maoshan_i_ego_zhivye_pejzazhi claim he is a vice chairman of Chinese Association of Painters, which is a quite a position. So, there may be some notability in this case, but unless we have sources that confirm it, can't pass it
