Lyapunov family

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A translation of the Russian page ru:Ляпуновы with only Russian sources, that leaves out the key fact that the Russian page does NOT claim that all the Lyapunov's listed are part of the same family. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 13:27, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep, surely, subject to pruning - if the Russian sources confirm this as a genuine Russian noble family, as they seem to, then shouldn't the article stay, minus the individuals that are not confirmed as belonging to it? Eustachiusz (talk) 01:25, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Possibly, but I don't see references saying anything more than that certain individuals from the 16th century may have been part of a noble family, which is a trivial mention of the topic. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 01:30, 27 September 2018 (UTC)


 * There are enough sources for a reasonable stub at least, and the individuals can migrate to a the surname page. I don't see the justification for deletion. Eustachiusz (talk) 10:41, 27 September 2018 (UTC)


 * [outdent] My Russian is minimal and it has taken me this long to look more closely at the Russian page but I've now done so, and stand by what I wrote above: the sources given are more than enough to establish the noble family of the name, and I'll import them. However, the translation is not brilliant, and has missed the line in the Russian article which adds that there are [two] other families of Lyapunov, without clarifying which family the more recent L's belong to. I'll clean up accordingly.Eustachiusz (talk) 14:51, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. It seems a perfectly servicable encyclopaedia entry to me.  AGF on the Russian language sources and the dubious list of names has now been removed. SpinningSpark 10:08, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
