In the Russian Wikipedia I write "Шмулевич" in the search box and one of the completions is "Шмулевич, Авраам". That article was deleted in 2011, so it shouldn't appear there. I guess that the index of pages to autocomplete is stale, or something along these lines.
Does the article show up in Cirrus? I imagine not. If so I'm inclined to WONTFIX this.

If that means https://ru.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search&srbackend=CirrusSearch then yes, the deleted article is still proposed as a search dropdown when entering Шмулевич and choosing it provides the error Создать страницу «Шмулевич, Авраам»

The prefix suggestions don't respect srbackend, can you try enabling it as a Beta Feature and try again?
