Non-notable individual lacking GHits and GNEWS to support claims. Suspect a hoax. Fails WP:BIO. ttonyb1 (talk) 07:00, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete After doing a couple of searches, I have been unable to confirm this individual's existence. The best I could find was this one this, but that article is certainly about a different person. Google Scholar returns no results as well. Unless there are sources in Russian, I suspect that this article is a hoax. Cunard (talk) 07:05, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Well, I found a guy by the same name who published a book of poetry, dunno if it's the same guy: [1].
- Don't see anything indicating particular notability of anyone by this name but I didn't look very hard. cab (talk) 10:28, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete nothing on Google Scholar, only one mention on the website of his alleged employer: [2] (a list of students who passed a quiz in 2004). The guy who wrote the poetry book might or might not be him, but that guy's not notable either, only gets hits on bookseller websites. cab (talk) 10:46, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, search turned out self-published academic reviews and a book of poetry that made 300 copies (was it the same person, at all?) and no sign of independent sources. NVO (talk) 16:55, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, Notability is not demonstrated to required standard. Xxanthippe (talk) 05:06, 10 September 2009 (UTC).[reply]
- Delete Based on the material in the article, he is not notable as an academic. the work he lists are undergraduate or graduate student papers, and a number of political article. He does not seem to have received the doctorate yet ,at least not the doctorat nauk. I cannot tell whether he is notable as a writer on the present evidence.
