This person doesn't exist in the history of Azerbaijan. This article is a direct spam version of Fuad Abdurahmanov. Somebody modified in 2009 on ruwiki under Radik Guliyev. Furthermore, it was falsified even more, to a degree that a website copied from wiki. It's used as the only reference on this article.

However, the real Ibrahim Guliyev lived in 1900-1938. See this link. There's no further information about him.

We deleted the article from azwiki after a thorough examination. It's sad to see that the article has been translated into different languaged. If possible, i would use your help to delete them as well. Toghrul Rahimli (talk) 19:58, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Your explanation of the sequence of events that led to the creation of this article on en-wiki seems plausible enough to me. A cursory web search doesn't turn up any evidence that this person existed. The only thing that comes up is that web page you mentioned that is currently used as a source on the article itself, and which is indeed probably just the result of citogenesis and lazy copying from ru-wiki or az-wiki. Besides, regardless of where that web page got its (fake) information from, the en-wiki article is a copyvio anyway, as its text is copied word for word from that very page. So, apart from this article most likely being a hoax, it's also about a non-notable person who might or might not exist, contains info that cannot be verified anyway, and is entirely a copyvio to boot.

Delete – Definite hoax; nonexistence of such laureate of "State prize" (established much later to replace well-archived Stalin prize, also without such a laureate), Nobel Peace prize (of 2007; was included in Russian version, despite the date of death and the fact that Nobel prizes aren't given post mortem) and USSR Academy of Arts membership are very easy to check. Toghrul, thank you for bringing this up; just deleted this from RuWP. Nominated also at Ukrainian WP. Tatewaki (talk) 23:07, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
