Author's notes

[edit]

Do not reject this article on notability grounds. You probably see the word "Kazakhstan" and instantly think of Borat and assume that they are not notable but this person is the Kazakh equivilant of a Medal of Honor recipient and nobody says that medal of honor recipients aren't notable. The award Hero of Kazakhstan is far rarer than the US Medal of Honor and demonstrates Suleymanov's notability. There are also articles on Wikipedia about snipers with much lower body counts like Vladimir Pchelintsev. Also the fact that the sources I cite are not in English does not mean he is not notable, not everything is in English. I am well aware of the extreme bias against Central Asians in Wikipedia article review and I expect that Suleymanov be treated with respect instead of being scorned as not important just because he is Kazakh. — Preceding unsigned comment added by QazyQazyQazaqstan (talkcontribs)
