- The article is new enough and long enough, and is well sourced. No copyvio is evident (Earwig is happy, and nothing looks suspicious). QPQ has been done. ALT0 is interesting, and directly supported by a source in the article. ALT1 is also interesting, but less well supported; I can only see that Gorodetsky was the "protector and patron" of the Mints group, which was criticised for these things, but I don't see the article currently supporting this hook as written. Can a more direct source for this be given? —Kusma (t·c) 10:59, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- I have added an Alt to make it clearer that he was one of a group that faced those criticisms (said to be led by Mints with Gorodestsky in a leading role). The charges are those detailed throughout Tikhonov's article, particularly the paragraph March 24-29. Philafrenzy (talk) 11:25, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- I had not looked through that article enough (and had forgotten to search for forms like Городецкого: I am still a beginner at learning Russian). It does support the claims in ALT1a, and I am happy to approve it now, although I would suggest thinking about whether there should be a link to Isaak Mints (but that can be edited in later). (AGF because the sources for 1a are in Russian). —Kusma (t·c) 12:00, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
