  • Per Wikipedia policy (WP:COMMONNAME), the name most often used in English-language sources is the one we should prefer. While some sources use other transliterations such as "Dzmitry Baskau" and "Dmitry Baskov", my Googling indicates that the proposed "Dmitri Baskov" is most common, and I have cited reliable sources to illustrate that. 162 etc. (talk) 18:06, 14 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
