Delete: Non-notable individual. Only included due to his grandfather. Pugnacious 14:20, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Russia-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 14:37, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep as a longtime columnist at Moscow News, one of the more important post-breakup Russian papers, or merge to Sergei Khrushchev. His death and life did attract some attention outside Russia [1]coi[2][3] although primarily in the context of his shared name (searching is made difficult as they both had the same patronymic, Sergeyevich, even discounting alternate spellings). He worked on his grandfather's memoirs but his father Sergei is credited as editor. --Dhartung | Talk 01:42, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep: He seems to be sufficiently notable, but if not then merge with his father's article.Watchingthevitalsigns 14:58, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Article does not indicate any notability as a journalist except for famous grand-dad and the same name. Since his dad was Sergey Khrushchev, I guess he was a Nikita Sergeyvich too, but all this one does is lend to confusion. FDR may have a descendant named Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and if that person is a journalist, those two facts by themselves do not merit an article. Mandsford 23:14, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge to the grandfather's article.--JForget 22:48, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Notable in Russia. As notable as American presidential children. Alex Middleton 11:57, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. The references added seem sufficient for notability for defending his grandfather's legacy and for criticizing the discrimination against him after his father emigrated. Canuckle 05:36, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
