Too small and insignificant Russian politician. Significance according to WP:POLITICS is not observed.--Анатолий Росдашин (talk) 14:41, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep: Somewhat flowery language in the article. There's some coverage of this individual in RS. This is a mention, this , . This in French , and in Le Monde , and this .  Oaktree b (talk) 00:45, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Draftify while AfD is not clean-up, the article as it now stands needs to be "wikified' to work so that the sources, which seem to NEXIST to potentially satisfy GNG, are used to demonstrate that.Djflem (talk) 13:23, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Unsubstantiated lies for the purpose of harming and destroying important historical records. The activities of this politician and the importance of this article are supported by many references to publications in leading media. Dina about (talk) 16:03, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Comment Individual seems notable but article is not appropriate for mainspace in current state. AusLondonder (talk) 22:46, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep - again, AfD is not for cleanup, and it's not awful. Bearian (talk) 17:21, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Draftify - this is a WP:BLP, and according to the Telegraph in March 2023, Vikhareva was "largely unknown in Russia" (but see the Nov 2022 Le Monde source focused on Vikhareva). Draftifying could also help develop neutral and balanced content that is not WP:PROMOTION, with independent and reliable secondary sources. Vikhareva has continued to be quoted in news sources, e.g. NYT in May 2023, Politico in June 2023, so further development seems possible, but core content policies seem to favor removing this article from mainspace for now.

 * Keep Seems notable per Le Monde source, Meduza article, and various Russian sources. I've attempted a first pass at cleaning the article up, will try to work on it some more later today or tomorrow. I think at this point it isn't TNT worthy, if not particularly great.

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * I'm ok if we send it to draft, nothing wrong with a rewrite to help make it better. Oaktree b (talk) 23:50, 7 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep, with thanks to Rusalkii for the cleanup. -- asilvering (talk) 20:12, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
