Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of authoritarian regimes supported by the Soviet Union or Russia
for the very vague inclusion criteria (the definition of "support" bothers me more than "authoritarian", but the nomination is correct that both terms are slippery things), which manage to combine everything from foreign aid in early 2018 to full-blown puppet governments of the Eastern Bloc three decades or more ago. The article cited by the editor above me is one which may well warrant attention here as well,  notwithstanding. Separation of one poorly-conceived list into its constituent parts, though, would only result in multiple poorly-conceived articles, which doesn't resolve the issues of the original and if anything multiplies them
