Delete. Badly sourced, with no evidence of
WP:GNG or
WP:PROF based notability. In particular, his economic works appear to have single-digit citations in Google Scholar, far below the standard for macroeconomics in general and for work on economic cycles more specifically. The language barrier cannot be blamed as many of these works are in English. —

Comment - The research topic of Kondratiev has been controversial and new works by him have been discovered the interpretation of his life's work. Prior works discussing this will not be cited more frequently just because the status of the author had been changed. "Kondratiev's reputation has improved greatly since his formal rehabilitation by the Soviet government in 1987 and the discovery of new works he had written while in prison. These, along with new translations, were published in four monumental volumes in 1998."
cited in the article. The dissertation on Kondratiev is present in a number of
international libraries. Played a significant role in the rehabilitation of Farkas Heller whose work and the economics school he founded is now known to a wider public. Important text book production in support of university education before 1990. --

Delete. No indication he meets
WP:NPROF. While it may be true that what he studied was controversial, but that by itself does not make him notable. The question is whether other researchers (east or west) think his work on the controversial Kondratiev was important or not, citing or discussing the work of Sipos. The argument on whether Sipos is notable cannot be tied to whether Kondratiev is rehabilitated / notable or not. --

Delete. I'm not seeing the kind of impact (as measured by citations or similar) that we're looking for in
WP:NPROF. There's some very local coverage in Pécs county, but it looks well short of GNG. There's one review
[1] of his book Production Functions – Forecasting for Enterprise, but we'd need multiple reviews of multiple works for
WP:NAUTHOR.
