I don’t think this is a notable intersection of topics, and even if it was a list format is not how to discuss it. Lists are nearly always uninformative crap unless you are talking about statistics, or chronologies of office holders or award winners.

It’s just a guess, but I think a pretty reasonable one since the list is mostly non-notable examples. If the topic is notable, we should make an article and then a list.

It was just a bad stomachache from overeating, I’m fine. I did a quick look and, no, there do not appear to be any non-listacle sources about Russian superheroes as a group.

"Listicle" has been used as to be non-serious in discussions on Wikipedia, but I believe that this has to be decided on a case-by-case basis - especially as we are dealing with a list here, too. So I would be interested what listicle sources there were. Thanks.

Keep Same as all the others. There are enough entries with their own Wikipedia articles to make this a valid navigational list, far more useful than the category for this at
Category:Russian superheroes since it allows more information to be displayed. Any entry that isn't notable can be removed.

Procedural keep. "Lists are nearly always uninformative crap" is an obviously invalid deletion rationale and suggests that the nominator doesn't take this process or this project seriously.

Did you even read the above comment string with Daranios? I did
WP:BEFORE and got nothing much other than low-quality listicles, confirming my actual rationale that this is not a notable intersection of topics.
WP:AGF applies here.
