• Weak Keep many non-independent sources but probably just passes WP:BASIC. Mztourist (talk) 09:54, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The subject served as a spokesperson for the soldiers during the siege. He appears on a number of viral YouTube videos, each with close to a million hits. In addition to some coverage in press, this provides a sufficient notability for the person. My very best wishes (talk) 16:01, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. Lots of the !votes above don't seem to be based in policy, but I do have some concerns about whether or not the individual is WP:BLP1E. Is there any coverage of this individual outside of the context of the Ukrainian defense of the Azovstal Steel Plant? — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 07:17, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: We still need consensus on the notability
