 * See for example "Human possibilities: mind exploration in the USSR and Eastern Europe", by Stanley Krippner. "Calorie Theories, Longevity, and Natural Health: The System of Dr. Shatalova and Current Discoveries", by Tanya Zilberter. Marokwitz (talk) 10:17, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Her books in Russian: . Some big articles about her: (printed),  (Internet). Moscowconnection (talk) 19:51, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
 * : Sure, not all the articles you find like that are about her. But most are. Moscowconnection (talk) 05:37, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. With a GS h index of 3 only of local interest. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:40, 2 August 2011 (UTC).
 * I hadn't heard about her prior to seeing this AfD. But I've found out that she's the author of many books about healthy lifestyle and food. Her theory seems to be very well known in Russia but scientifically unrecognized. Moscowconnection (talk) 00:01, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Note I've just added references. Moscowconnection (talk) 00:01, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * A source in English: http://www.amazon.com/Calorie-Theories-Longevity-Natural-Health/dp/1451560680 Moscowconnection (talk) 00:16, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * That's not an independent source, it's an advertisement. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:01, 3 August 2011 (UTC).
 * Okay, I didn't know. It says "Editorial Review". You can remove it from the article. (It does seem relevant and helpful, though.) This one is a good independent source in Russian: . It was published either in Argumenty i Fakty or in one of its subsidiaries. You can understand the idea with Google Translate. Here: . Moscowconnection (talk) 04:29, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * And a very reliable source, a mention by REGNUM News Agency: . It's just a mention, the short article is about a summer camp opening, a summer camp where people will improve their health by her method. Google Translate: So you may think that she's "just a diet inventor" but I don't think she is. She seems to be very well known. Moscowconnection (talk) 04:29, 3 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Per Xxanthippe, does not meet WP:PROF, does not meet WP:GNG. --Crusio (talk) 07:09, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Note She clearly meets WP:GNG: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list." Her notability as a scentist doesn't have to be proven. If you don't like the article itself, you can re-write it based on the article in Argumenty i Fakty. Moscowconnection (talk) 08:21, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep: nomination doesn't really say why it should be deleted, and sources have been added.--Milowent • talkblp-r 04:23, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
