I declined a speedy deletion nomination for this article (not a straightforward A7/G11). However, I agree that many of the sources may not be reliable (indicated in the speedy tag), and I'm not finding additional significant coverage in reliable sources in a WP:BEFORE search. The most I see is pranks covered by various media outlets, millions of subscribers, and legal issues, though given the quality of sources (e.g., The Sun) and lack of in-depth coverage, I have doubts that this is sufficent. From what I see, the general notability guideline and/or the subject notability guideline for entertainers are not clearly satisfied, though I'm willing to withdraw this nomination if sufficient sourcing exists – especially in Russian-language sources.

 * I am leaning toward weak delete. The subject is mostly appears as a suspect of a crime in Russian language sources, (e.g. ), but the coverage seems to be insufficient to pass WP:GNG and does not provide enough details for a fair BLP page.

 * Delete I fail to see how his pranks fall under the category of Biography of a Living Person. Not every prankster on Youtube or in the tabloids should get their own WP:BLP.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by OKamigo (talk • contribs) 22:11, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
