Artem Avetisyan

From Talk:Artem Avetisyan:

It's strange to see an article about Artyom Avetisyan on Wikipedia. The conflict with Calvey is the only reason why he is somehow visible. Before that story, no one was interested in him. And outside of that story, no one is interested in him either. As an investor he is unremarkable, and as an entrepreneur he has not created anything significant. --5.17.89.140 (talk) 20:36, 15 February 2022 (UTC) GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 15:34, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

 * (also copied from Talk:Artem Avetisyan) I must admit I had doubts regarding notability. The media coverage isn't great either (and no personal achievements highlighted). I have no will to contest this. Rabbi Tkachov (talk) 13:27, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Delete Sources all in Russian, no international coverage, article seems more promotional than anything else. Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 21:18, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete -- no indication of notability, the sources (that I can google translate) don't seem to be talking about him specifically in any significant way.  Alyo  (chat·edits) 08:11, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Keep: There is no requirement for the sources used in the English version of Wikipedia to be in English. Searches in English are unlikely to turn up sources in Russian but those used in the article seem adequate. It is important to remember that editors are encouraged to translate articles from other language versions of Wikipedia.--Ipigott (talk) 11:09, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Genuine question--which ones? A few of them are explicitly tagged as a press release/advertisement, and the remainder are just combinations of name-drops and quotes from him. Not a single one appears to have more than one sentence about him. Alyo  (chat·edits) 15:08, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * The Russian sources look really dodgy to me too. It's totally fine for sources to be in Russian, but I don't think we should assume these are adequate unless someone can specifically explain why we ought to. -- asilvering (talk) 18:59, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment: just pointing out for anyone inclined to look for sources that his full name is "Artem Davidovich Avetisyan" if you need to disambiguate between him and someone else. I'm also only getting coverage related to Calvey, as mentioned in the nomination, but I haven't looked a) very hard or b) in Russian so I don't want to argue for deletion myself. (I was checking if there might be more coverage under alternate romanizations Artom/Artyom: doesn't look like it.) -- asilvering (talk) 19:10, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete. As a Russian speaker, I confirm that sources are inadequate at best. A meaningful coverage of his person is lacking (as mentioned above). Myuno (talk) 12:49, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
