Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael Pyshnov
The subject is not notable as an academic. As far as I can tell, he published (almost) nothing and there do not to be appear any citations of his scientific work in academic publications, let alone wide citability, as required by . In terms of general notability under , coverage by reliable sources  is also very scarce. GoogleNews does give one hithttp://news.google.com/archivesearch?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tab=pn&q=%22Michael+Pyshnov%22 that mentions him, but it is in fact an opinion piece by Pyshnov himself, rather than an article about him by an independent source. Seems to be a bit of a  case as well, since such notability as there appears to come from the plagiarism allegations. There are also serious general  concerns here. Without multiple solid independent reliable sources, a nasty personal conflict like that should not be covered per  guidance even in the context of an article on a larger subject. All in all, delete
