Just a photographer trying to advertise his business, fails WP:BIO and WP:CREATIVE. Alleged awards (now removed as unsourced) are impossible to verify and probably not notable to begin with. § FreeRangeFrog croak 19:21, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as per nom. A google news search shows that a person of this name had at least one photo which was picked up by the news services, and he also (or someone with the same name) writes for an online web site called Russia Beyond The Headlines, but I can't find any articles about him.

 * Delete per nom. I found no references in the web, other than his website. Article written by an single SPA account. -- Alexf(talk) 22:02, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment Unsure about Vershinin's notability at this time, but do note that some of the deleted awards are apparently real as shown on this page: https://thepanoawards.com/2014-winners-gallery/  TheMindsEye (talk) 23:10, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
 * reply - awards can be real, and the subject might even have won them, but they are not necessarily notable just because they exist; and the mere winning of them may not constitute notability either. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  17:31, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. As it currently stands it makes no case for notability. Scanning the first couple of pages of Google responses shows no sign of notability either. -Lopifalko (talk)
