Vladimir Okrepilov

Almost entirely unsourced BLP (the one source is to an awards site, not a reliable source), with the main list of achievements entirely unsourced. Previously deleted a copyvio, but I can’t see that earlier version to see if that still applies. But even if not, no evidence of notability, serious concerns over its neutrality.

 * Keep. Didn't he win a Korolev medal (I can't recall the year just now). Professor, RAS academician. Must be several Russian language sources for him, will look him up. Agree that BLP article is excessively promotional and very badly written.Inlinetext (talk) 12:08, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep -- full member of Russian Academy of Sciences; also appears to have authored several books per Worldcat Identies. The article is not in a good state, but the subject appears to be notable. Sources are likely to exist in Russian. K.e.coffman (talk) 07:56, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
