 * Keep I think it is possible to compile a decent article based on reliable and independent sources . The article is an interesting contribution to our coverage of literature topics. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 21:10, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
 * only one of the sources in your search, the Telegraph article could be considered indepth. the others merely confirm someone won the prize. also WP:ITSINTERESTING is not a reason to keep. LibStar (talk) 00:06, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
 * More indepth sources in Russian (major Russian newspapers included). --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 13:02, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
 * + this. It looks that the award is widely noted and covered by Russian media. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 13:06, 20 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep or merge, don't delete. The Rossica Young Translators Prize is different than (although related to) the Rossica Translation Prize.  There appear to be more sources for the latter, at least in English.  In any event, however, deletion would be the wrong result.  The information about the Young Translators Prize is sufficiently sourced to justify keeping it or, at minimum, merged either into the main article Academia Rossica or combined into one article with Rossica Translation Prize. --Arxiloxos (talk • contribs) 17:11, 20 September 2012
 * Keep. Coverage in The Telegraph. Coverage in Russian-language sources. Willing to discuss merge after the AfD on the article talk page. Green Cardamom (talk) 16:31, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
