The result was keep, withdrawn. There was one other delete comment, but in light of the sources brought to light by the AfD I don't think it's substantive enough to block closure. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:38, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear notability, quick search does not bring up many sources. Kees08 (Talk) 08:48, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: As per nom. Non-notable. No sources. Macktheknifeau (talk) 15:20, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, in fact speedy keep. The sources listed in the EL section already confirm that he is a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, which is more than sufficient to pass WP:PROF#C3. The Russian Wikipedia article has a lot more info and sources. Several national-level awards, starting with the USSR State Prize in 1982. He has been and still is working for the Soviet/Russian space program, which probably means that most of his publications are classified. But there are lots of sources regarding him in Russian if one bothers to look. Here are some journal editorships [1], [2], [3], [4], and some examples of news coverage specifically about him [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], etc. (For those doing googling in English please note that there are several variants of transliteration for both his first and last names: Anatoly, Anatoliy, Koroteev, Koroteyev.) Sufficient to pass both WP:PROF and WP:GNG. Nsk92 (talk) 20:52, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Nsk92. Bit of a lazy nomination. Even without looking for Russian sources, the national prizes, presidency of a section of RAN, and significant contributions to several areas of science (all mentioned in the article) are strong indicators of notability. A "quick search" isn't enough to delete someone's contribution to Wikipedia. – Joe (talk) 21:09, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per the reliable sources coverage identified above this passes WP:PROF and WP:GNG Atlantic306 (talk) 21:46, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdraw - Thanks for those sources Nsk92, the sources I found last night were passing mentions. I added a couple of them into the article and did a bit of a copy edit, I think it was machine translated from the Russian article. The sources from the Russian article did not machine translate well, and I could not determine if they showed notability. Maybe I should have waited on this one until I took more Russian lessons :). Withdrawing the nomination, as the subject is notable and the article has a couple of citations to show that now. Kees08 (Talk) 21:48, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
