Guilherme Gavrilov

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Appears to be a hoax per information from someone I trust elsewhere online. He said "...I can't find any reference to him, "The Shoe," or "Tutenkhamun" in the Google Books snippet view copy of Statyi o Lermontove. King Tut wasn't even well known in the 19th century. The whole story seems far too far-fetched to be true. And I discovered it because it was reposted on everything2 by a user who called himself "Tolstoevsky"--a pseudonym once used by the satirists Ilf and Petrov." . Poking around showed me the same thing. Unless someone has a copy of that book? The only usable citation in the article goes to Pravda, citing something only vaguely tangential to the article itself. roux   04:34, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Hoax seems to be a likely explanation, but even if that is not it, it fails WP:N with no Google hits except those which mirror this article.  Additionally, I looked at the references.  The solitary hyperlink takes us to a Pravda page that makes no mention of him.   Un  sch  ool  05:39, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
