Delete as non-notable (the only notability is rumors, dubious and with little or no ground) after merging small what is notable to Leonid Nikolaev. Mikkalai 21:03, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Keep, notable through involvement in the events surrounding the assassination of Sergei Kirov. If she was similarly involved in some political assassination today, there'd be no question that we'd keep it, so we shouldn't be biased against past events. Everyking 22:59, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- She wasn't involved herself. It was all rumors after the event. We cannot have articles for all people associated with actions of famous people, especially those who didn't take any active part. Mentioning in the main article should be sufficient. Mikkalai 01:50, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
~~Delete~~, it's a rumour. Ok, Keep/Merge Wyss 03:55, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Keep as sufficiently notable. It's apparently an ultimately sourced rumour, as it references a book. It's nice to see a political rumour that isn't from a contemporary English-speaking Western country, and Kirov's assassination was a watershed event in Soviet history.

Keep Notable, agree with Everyking. [[User:Rhymeless|Rhymeless | (Methyl Remiss)]] 07:26, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Keep for the reasons listed above. —[[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 08:41, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Delete. Somebody famous' wife, who may or may not have had an affair with somebody else famous, who "Draule was swept up in the mass arrests", but apparently is not notable on her own. Being linked to someone notable does not automatically confer notability. Niteowlneils 17:18, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Except for one link from Leonid Nikolaev, this is an orphaned article. The subject's fame is derivative of Leonid Nikolaev. Merge and redirect there (which would be consistent with our treatment of current events as well). It can be broken out to a separate article if necessary but right now there's plenty of room in the main article. Rossami (talk) 21:31, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Keep. In its present form it acts as a fat redirect, which is appropriate. Wile E. Heresiarch 16:41, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
