I moved this biography from "Alyosha Efros" to "Alexei A. Efros" and removed all mention of "Alyosha" to be consistent with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Using_nicknames . "Alyosha" is a diminutive nickname never used by this person in a professional setting. It does not appear in any of the cited documents. Jhhays (talk) 04:03, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the birthdate until someone can produce documentation for it. Jhhays (talk) 04:03, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's listed on his CV. Do we need additional sources for this? Blueclaw (talk) 16:08, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
