The subject of the article seems to have little notability, with only a claim to fame of being a conductor of a dubiously notable orchestra. Ducknish (talk) 15:50, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak delete I can't read Russian but the sources generally seem to consist of vk.com and Facebook. --Artene50 (talk) 06:52, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. I do read Russian, and there are some sources available (for instance, I added the news from the website of the Ministry of Culture, there are also several local Novosibirsk papers, and I did not search too much). The Meritous Artist is confirmed (I added a ref), on the other hand, just having this title by itself in Russian Wikipedia would not be sufficient to keep the article (in contrast to the People's Artist of Russian Federation, which is sufficient). This is clearly a machine translation, I have done some copyediting, but one needs to do more. (Not my specialization at all).--Ymblanter (talk) 07:31, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete: Not enough reliable, independent secondary sources. FB and other social networking sites don't count...Jimsteele9999 (talk) 23:35, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect/merge to Novosibirsk Youth Symphony Orchestra. Any verified content from the current page can be merged there, where he is already mentioned as conductor "since the beginning". --MelanieN (talk) 15:47, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
