Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of surnames in Russia
per the analysis of Cunard (though I have admittedly not double checked all his sources and am taking it on good faith).  gives several reasons why lists can exist and Cunard does an excellent job of showing how several of those reasons suggest that this is an appropriate article. The idea that our content could be used for harm should not be dismissed but is not, in this case, a policy or guideline based reason to support deletion. Best
