Submission declined on 6 July 2024 by DoubleGrazing (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Submission declined on 4 July 2024 by Jamiebuba (talk). This appears to be a duplicate of another submission, Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich of Russia, which is also waiting to be reviewed.

Comment: This entire draft is supported by a single source. That isn't enough to establish notability per WP:GNG. It might (?) be enough for WP:NPOL, but the subject is described as a civil servant, as well as appointee to a senate position, neither of which are included in NPOL. I'm happy to be proven wrong on this, but I don't think notability is there, either way. DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:59, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Konstantin Konstantinovich Stefanovich (12 January 1861, Yekateringof - 10 March 1920) - senator of the Russian Empire, deputy governor of Tiflis, Siedlce and Lublin.
Biography
editKonstantin Konstantinovich Stiefanovich was born on 12 January 1861 and came from the Orthodox hereditary nobility of the Tambov Governorate.[1] His father held the position of protojerej.[1] In 1876 he began his education at the Imperial Alexandrovsk Lyceum . He graduated from it on 19 December 1881 with a gold medal, which earned him the rank of titular councillor (IX civil rank) civil rank in the rank table). [1]
This civil servant's career began on 31 December 1881, when he was included in the staff of the Ministry of Justice and assigned to work in the 1st Department of the Ruling Senate. On 1 February 1884, he was appointed assistant obersecretary of the Second Department of the Ruling Senate.[1] At the same time, from 1 February 1884 to 3 January 1885, he performed the duties of managing the Oberprokuratorial Affairs of the Second Department, for which he received a salary of 300 roubles on 10 December 1884. His role in the department was crucial until 20 November 1887, when he served as obersecretary.[1] On 25 February 1888, for personal reasons, he asked to be released from service, which was granted. This did not last long, however, as already on 31 March 1888 he was accepted as a full-time member of the Ministry of the Interior (MIA) and sent to work in the Land Department of the Ministry. On 18 May 1888 he was appointed as a permanent member of the Slutsk District Land Office, and on 18 August of the same year he took up a similar post at the Bobruisk District Land Office.[1]
His commitment and competence led to his appointment on 21 March 1889 as marshal of the nobility of the Bobruisk district, and as chairman of the Bobruisk District Landowners' Office and the Office for Military Duty.[1] His commitment to local affairs was recognised when he was appointed honorary justice of the peace of Bobruisk District on 16 May 1890 and re-elected to the post on 26 May 1893. On 2 February 1895 he took up the post of mayor of Bobruisk, combining it with his position as marshal of the nobility of the Bobruisk district. On 19 March 1896, his career gained momentum when he was appointed deputy governor of Tiflis.[1] He was re-elected honorary justice of the peace of the Bobruisk district on 7 June 1896, and on 10 June of the same year he was given the title of honorary citizen of the city of Bobruisk. His organisational and management skills were widely recognised, as evidenced by his participation in numerous special commissions, including those at the Tiflis Military Hospital in 1896 and 1897.[1]
His contribution to education and municipal administration was honoured on 1 August 1898 when he became a member of the Georgian Diocesan School Board.[2] Between 16 October and 19 December 1898 he supervised the revision of the administration and economy of the city of Tiflis, and on 22 October 1898 he became a member of the special committee for the revision of the certificates of recruits.[2] On 19 November 1898 he was appointed chairman of the combined Presidium of the Board of Directors and Supervisory Committee of the Noble Land Bank on settlements with the founders. On 7 May 1899 he became a member of the committee for clarifying disorders and misunderstandings in the Borjom estate of Grand Duke Mikhail Nikolaevich.[2] From 30 March to 19 April 1900, he chaired a special commission to clarify a dispute between the army and the Armenian village community of Dzhlan-Ogly. His versatility was evident when, on 4 July 1900, he became a member of the commission for the elaboration of the legal basis for imposing an 'assessment' tax on the residents of Abastuman and the introduction of a law on towns. On 27 July 1900, he was appointed chairman of the commission for the relief of earthquake victims in the Akhalak district of the Tiflis governorate. At his own request, on 27 August 1900, he was dismissed from his post due to his inclusion in the staff of the Ministry of the Interior.[2]
His further career in public administration included an appointment as deputy governor of Siedlce on 22 January 1901. At that time, on 19 May 1901, he was delegated to the women's convent in Lesna for the convent celebrations. On 13 October 1901, he became a member of the Siedlce County Branch of the Chelm-Warsaw Diocesan School Council. His commitment to local affairs did not falter, as evidenced by his assumption of the chairmanship of the committee for the construction of the new St Mary Magdalene Hospital building in Biala on 8 November 1901.[2] At his own request, on 8 June 1902, he was transferred to the post of deputy governor of Lublin.[2] His organisational skills and managerial experience resulted in his appointment on 25 January 1903 as assistant manager of the Land Department of the Interior Ministry and as a member of the Government Senate. In 1910 he became a member of the Small Credit Committee at the Ministry of Finance, and in February of the same year deputy chief manager of His Imperial Majesty's Own Chancellery for the Institutions of the Imperial Maria. His career culminated in his appointment as a senator of the Ruling Senate on 18 January 1911, and in 1915 he served as senator of the Second Department of the Ruling Senate, the culmination of his long public service.[2]
