Felix Dadaev

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Most likely, a hoax (the guy iis fifty years younger, than Stalin); even if not a hoax, not notable. Ymblanter (talk) 21:44, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually in 2008, Felix Dadaev was 88, Stalin would have been 129, so its 41 years different. This does not rule him out as a double.

 * Delete. Being Stalin's body double does not seem to make the subject notable.   Sławomir Biały  (talk) 21:53, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Political decoy where he is already covered. I see no lasting coverage about him, all of the news coverage that go into any detail come from April 2008, to me this adds up to a passing news story, and per WP:NOTNEWSPAPER, the article should not remain stand-alone. I see no evidence of a hoax, and as RSs have reported this as fact, we must assume that they have checked their facts. Quasihuman (talk • contribs) 22:35, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. I would say being Stalin's body double would make the person very notable and maybe something happened to him that would make him more so.
 * Notability is not inherited. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:50, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect per Quasihuman. There's nothing in the current article that's not in the proposed redirect target, and there's plenty of space in the target should any more information about Dadaev turn up.  The subject is notable, obviously, so it's a plausible search term, and thus a good redirect candidate.&mdash; alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 16:27, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
