Hello! Could you possibly add this information to the article itself, and insert some sources from outside Wikipedia? Each article needs to be sourced from reliable sources, which means we know that Afrikantov is significant enough a figure to be included in the encyclopaedia. These sources don't have to be in English, but they must substantiate that he was a notable person within his field. Thank you! LS1979 (talk) 19:44, 14 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
