This article fails to demonstrate the notability of Boris Novikov. With no references, it does not meet Wikipedia's expectation that the subject "has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Eddie Blick (talk) 19:27, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. Novikov People's Artist of Russia. This is the highest acting title in the state. The person is popular. --Jürgen Klinsmann1990 (talk) 02:42, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep: He won a People's Artist of Russia award under the title People's Artist of the Russian Federation which is sourced. If this was for someone who won an equivalent award in the United States or the United Kingdom, I'm sure that this would have never made it to AfD. SL93 (talk) 03:33, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep: Per above. The corresponding article in Russian has more references.  Jupitus Smart  06:34, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep Agree with the WP:GEOBIAS concerns expressed. The individual clearly meets WP:ANYBIO namely "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honour" AusLondonder (talk) 03:45, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep for following reasons: 1) Novikov won the People's Artist of Russia. This is the highest acting title Russia as previously noted. 2) Concurr with the WP:GEOBIAS concerns expressed. The individual clearly meets WP:ANYBIO namely "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honour" 3) Has won these awards also: Medal "For Valiant Labour in the Great Patriotic War 1941–1945" and Medal "In Commemoration of the 800th Anniversary of Moscow" Dean Esmay (talk)
