Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dmitri Novgorodsky
You have never heard of the subject, and now you and other Wikipedians will.  The article satisfies more than one  criterion and you can't have it deleted just "because you've never heard of the subject". The purpose of an encyclopedia is to make you acquainted with subjects, what's the point if you know about them already?. I promise you that classical professionals, not fans, know the subject. But this is not the point of argument about deletion either. Failing to meet |Heymann standard for rescuing articles nominated for deletion doesn't necessarily qualify an article for deletion. '''''By the way, the article has another added source at the reference section, from the New Britain Herald. It is a reliable source which asserts the subject's winning of major prizes at music competitions'''''. '''In short, the article amply establishes and verifies notability of its subject. Also, the article doesn't mention whether Dmitri Novgorodsky is tenured or not. Do Wikipedians have prejudices toward non-tenured professors who also happen to be outstanding performing musicians and therefore delete articles about them
— NONE, NONE
