No notability, a notorious prank, corresponding article was deleted in Russian WP. --ssr (talk) 16:38, 23 January 2008 (UTC) Further reasoning: the originating event was that editor flawed with fictional surname and was instantly fired the morning after. The consequent event was a huge temporary resonance in blogs and some news discussing RSS-exported flaw shortly removed from the originating article. Further talks on the "virtual politician", "his websites" "election candidate" are unrelated to the event's origins and are unnotable. Such an article was previously deleted in Russian Wikipedia with similar reasoning and blocked for further creation. --ssr (talk) 17:36, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. This is a modern example of Russian "Lieutenant Kijé". Third reference (Russian) seems to be sufficient to establish notability. Need to be improved and better sourced.Biophys (talk) 23:56, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
