This hagiography was all written over two days. With lots of details about the subject that only the subject would know. Much of it not sourced. Also, the subject is not notable. Perhaps this hagiography should be deleted.

I have got to say that there has been much added (and subtracted) from this article since 'Nansy' worked on it. This would make me feel a little bad about putting this up as an AfD. However, is the subject of this article truly notable, or is he just another self-promoting Russian dupe in our midst? 159.83.183.107 (talk) 22:28, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Mostly not notable, especially all of the details about the failed initiatives. The Jade Knight (talk) 04:25, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - And he never was at a high school, never had any schoolmates, actualy, it is as if he's always been born in Yekaterinburg, together with his wife, just hopping in to California on an assumed identity. Isn't it clear? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.64.45.154 (talk) 11:08, 15 October 2017‎ (UTC)[reply]

Where is this photo, once again?

I was always impressed by the slavic features in his face, and for a true californian, he seems to embrace the frost and snow a bit too much. It's almost as if he wanted to return to a place of his childhood. But notice, in the photo, how the faces around him are so compatible with his own. Thus, in the absence of any proof, there is no reason to believe he's ever been a californian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.64.45.154 (talk) 11:21, 15 October 2017‎ (UTC)[reply]

That's a lot of synthesis—too much, in fact, to be admissible in the article. —C.Fred (talk) 16:39, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced statements

There is no source that states where the subject went to high school or when he graduated. Many of the claims rely on primary sources that would fail Wikipedia:Reliable sources. Many of the links are dead or broken. The "California ballot initiatives proposals" section is overly detailed and could be summed up in a few sentences.

Assuming no objections, I will go through the English sources that I can find on the internet and strike claims that I cannot find a reliable source to. 🌊PacificDepths^talk|contrib 08:00, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
