Anatoly Moskvin

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I was almost going to PROD this, but this BBC source gives off the impression that there are more sources out there. The only problem is that I cannot find anything to suggest that Moskvin is really known for anything other than his gruesome habit of digging up bodies and dressing them up for display around his house. Granted there may be more coverage in Russian, which is why I've listed this at AfD as opposed to PROD- I'm hoping that if other language sources are available that prove that he's notable, they can be provided. I just really get the impression that the guy was only covered once or twice and while he was known in academic circles, that did not really translate into coverage in RS that would show notability. I know that there's at least one non-grave robbing source out there, a 2007 newspaper interview, but I do not speak, read, or write Russian and as such can't really find anything to this extent. It really seems that he's only known for his grave robbing, which would be a BLP issue since the event has not received any true further coverage past the event itself and it's not major enough to warrant inclusion.

 * Delete I could not find anything that rings the notability bell in a Google. With respect to his morbid hobby that would seem to fall under WP:BLP1E. -Ad Orientem (talk) 22:37, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
