Molotov → Molotov (disambiguation) – In the same manner that Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov became Lenin and Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili became Stalin, Vyacheslav Mikhailovich Skryabin became Molotov. He is the original Molotov and everyone as well as everything bearing the name Molotov, or any variation upon that name, stems from him. Beria redirects to Lavrentiy Beria, Voroshilov to Kliment Voroshilov, Bulganin to Nikolai Bulganin etc. Last year, a mass nomination which included Molotov was unsuccessful at Talk:Kalinin#Requested move 15 April 2017.

Oppose Per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, origination and precedence do not determine the primary topic. Proposer needs to demonstrate that the article has particular long term significance over other ambiguous articles, or that it is overwhelmingly likely that users of this term are looking for this article. He has done neither. MegaSloth (talk) 13:37, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose fair or not, he's not more well-known in the west than the Molotov cocktail that bears his name. power~enwiki (π, ν) 05:36, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
