From the "Report on the Status and Actions of the Imperial Moscow University for the 1835/6 Academic and 1836 Civil Years" follows a later time of birth: about 1774, which is better consistent with the report of the agent of the 3rd Department von Fock in 1827: "editor of "Moscow Vedomosti" is the famous Shalikov, who has long been the subject of ridicule for all those involved in literature. At 50, he is trying to be young, writes love poems and takes epigrams for praise..."
