Babasan Tsyrenzhapovich Tsyrenov[edit]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:SOLDIER due to rank and awards and lack of secondary reliable coverage. An air gunner, Tsyrenov received two Orders of the Patriotic War 1st class which does not make him notable. Of the references, the warheroes reference is actually to a comment, other two are to unreliable WP:SPS, and Krasnaya Zvezda (the dead link) is a routine announcement of recipients of the Medal for Battle Merit. I could find no evidence that he is considered a "legendary hero" as internet searching only turns up run of the mill Buryat Victory Day stories. This article was previously deleted on the Russian Wikipedia. Kges1901 (talk) 12:04, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Per nom; the postwar awards appear to be commemorative rather than for individual accomplishment.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 12:49, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Just because Russian Wikipedia deletes certain articles doesn't mean that we should follow suit. I know it have a lot of articles that we here might consider to be junk because they use unreliable sources. But, I wont object if the result will be delete.--Biografer (talk) 21:26, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
