Promotional article, created by a WP:SPA. The article claims that he is the architect of certain buildings, but this is not what our articles on the individual buildings show. Unless this claim in itself is somehow notable. See Scottish firm accuses Russian rival of ‘fake news’ in skyscraper spat Edwardx (talk) 19:48, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep, on the basis he seems to be a prominent architect/engineer, who has had some significant coverage about him (including the article found by Edwardx about the questionable claims of authorship). Much of the coverage is in Russian, but the Vedomosti article is substantially about him. Of course the article needs clean-up and maybe even moving it to draft space to improve would be feasible (if there is someone to take on the task). Sionk (talk) 22:54, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Insufficient reliable sources to verify the content at present, particularly given the allegation (unproven) that he takes credit for other people's work. That and the SPA should all ring alarm bells. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:02, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
