Draft:Nenad Glavan

• Comment: You have a basic misunderstanding of referencing. We are not interested im references that mention Glavan as actor, director, etc. We are interested in references which are about Glavan, about his methods, critiquing him, perhaps. We do not dispute the simple facts that he has directed (etc) a load of stuff, we need to know what is said about him in WP:RS
  I'm sorry this simple review has taken so long, and I accept that you must feel frustrated to have it pushed back to be worked on again.
  Reading WP:REFB may help you. Find the righty references and use them to say, in your own words what they say about Galvan 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 14:17, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
