WP:GNG?? Müdigkeit (talk) 19:30, 29 July 2015 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per WP:MILL. I'd say speedy, but there is a drop of an allegation of notability. Bearian (talk) 20:12, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - first his name is Marat, not Marath. I'm improving. Not run of the mill. He was involved in high-level talks between the Azerbaijani government and foreign oil companies. According to allegations and exposes (including The Times), he demanded (and possibly received) $360 million in bribes from BP and other companies. Manatov later announced that he was only working on behalf of the president of AZE, who was running all kinds of corruption rackets. Manafov then vanished off the face of the earth and is assumed to be playing checkers somewhere with Jimmy Hoffa.   —Мандичка YO 😜 15:28, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Marat Manafow, not Marath? Oh well... there are enough reliable sources, I think, so we can keep this.--Müdigkeit (talk) 06:16, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, Marat Manafov (or it would be transcribed as "Manafow" in German or Polish). Thanks for looking at the improved article and reconsidering - I'll close as withdrawn.  —Мандичка YO 😜 16:29, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
