 * Delete. No evidence this person existed as far as I can find. I couldn't find anyone by this name with those birth and death dates. —МандичкаYO 😜 15:47, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. This isn't actually stating anything about the subject that would constitute a notability claim at all — it just states that he existed, and doesn't even suggest an actual reason why his existence might have been encyclopedically noteworthy. And since it's completely unreferenced, even his existence hasn't actually been properly verified — and it isn't a good sign that there isn't an interlang to any evidence of an article about him in the Russian Wikipedia, where I'd expect the editor base to be more on the ball about notable Russian politicians. I'm willing to reconsider this if somebody with better Russian language skills can salvage it with an actual notability claim and some real sources for it, but as it stands there has yet to be any concrete evidence that this isn't just a hoax or an obscure personal ancestor of the page creator.

 * Delete in present state - simply as a page that does not provide any substantial information about the subject. My very best wishes (talk) 22:54, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:V; found zero reliable sources that he even existed. Bearian (talk) 01:12, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
