 * Keep - Foreign language sources are perfectly acceptable sources. While there may be sourcing concerns with this batch of nominations, I concur with the comments in other nominations of this group that there are serious concerns whether or not the nominator followed WP:BEFORE and consulted WP:PROF before cluster-bombing AfD with these nominations. - The Bushranger One ping only 05:39, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep easily meets WP:ACADEMIC. The fact that one of his books sold more than 7 million times is notable. Vice-president of Yukos. Newspaper is notable. Echoing Bushranger; sources in a foreign language are acceptable. You might want to read our guidelines, especially about notability, such as WP:N, WP:GNG. Deletion is not the right option; it needs improvements.-- ♫Greatorangepumpkin♫ Hey it's me 13:15, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. From my reading, he seems to meet WP:ACADEMIC - but perhaps I'm missing something? UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 12:34, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
