Hi, you can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. Please add your messages to the bottom of the talk page, or they may be overlooked. I've seen your message, but I'm about to go out for the day, so I won't have a chance to deal with this properly until tomorrow. After I've reviewed it, if I still don't think it can be restored in its current form, it's likely that I'll be able to put it in a user subpage for you to work on. I'll also explain what needs to be done in terms of meeting our criteria.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  09:22, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi,Jim thanks for your answer, although so far it doesn't solve anything. I'll be waiting impatiently for your come back. For now I can only repeat: a guy who writes all his life and has developed a circle of readers thinking highly of him as a writer, deserves in my book to be in the encyclopedia (this is the place to preserve cultural endeavors for the next generation, isn't it?). And yes, I am ready to work on it — do whatever necessary. Thanks again — Ewa Ewalaczna (talk) 12:14, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

OK, lots of problems. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that he meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, or they will be deleted.
 * There is no indication of why he is notable. Writing for 40 years doesn't make one notable. None of his books is linked to existing Wikipedia articles, there is nothing about book sales, awards. In fact, your text says that most of his life "he’d make his living as translator and interpreter"
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: Well read in five languages... represents a wide variety of interests... his true passion since early on has been phenomenology... at times in a truly shocking manner... preserving at the same time this much subtlety, lyricism and compassion...&mdash; and much similar personal commentary.
 * Your article isn't a factual encyclopaedia article, it is a personal essay full of opinions and light on facts. We cannot accept personal essays, reviews or original research

If the lack of references or evidence of notability were the only issues, I would sub-page the deleted text for you, but that would be pointless because, as indicated above, we cannot accept your original research, essay or personal opinions as an encyclopaedia article. I'm sorry, but you might want to try again, writing something factual about him  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  18:11, 27 March 2014 (UTC)


 * I note from this page that you seem to have an undeclared conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that you are notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created.
