Alexander Alexeev → Aleksandr Alekseyev (boxer) – Spelling per WP:RUS. Google results on "aleksandr alekseyev boxer": 49,700 hits, "alexander alexeev boxer": 18,300 hits. I don't think there's a WP:PRIMARY for "Aleksandr Alekseyev" (which is currently a redirect to this article). HandsomeFella (talk) 17:14, 8 March 2017 (UTC) --Relisting.

- Support per nomination and above-indicated WP:RUS. The proper transliteration is specified at the Aleksandr Alekseyev redirect and at Aleksandr Alekseyev (footballer). —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 10:43, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- Relisting comment: I see that Aleksandr Alekseyev has just been made into a two-way DAB. I think we should consider carefully whether this is the way to go. The redirect had been there for about ten years. Is there really no primary topic? Andrewa (talk) 20:28, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Support ru:Алексеев, Александр far too common Russian name, even if all the various diplomats on Russian and Polish wp don't have articles on en.wp, three individuals with the same name do. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:49, 16 March 2017 (UTC)
- Support I agree with above comments, it is a far too common Russian name --Bennyaha (talk) 06:03, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
