Ariel Sokolovsky
This seems to be a new user's userpage in the main namespace, see User:Ariel Sokolovsky. There is no indication of fame as a writer. Delete. JFW | T@lk  19:07, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC) This wikipedia entry is a stub.You can add to it if you want.Don't delete it. (comment left by User:Ariel Sokolovsky) According to my website stats many people look it up by searching for my name. There are articles in Wikipedia about contemporary people less famous than me.

 * Delete, not notable, vanity. Megan1967 04:45, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I wrote many articles and posts online.
 * Delete, Ariel, I say this with the greatest respect, but unless you can demonstrate that thousands of people *already* know your name, and present a credible case that some number of them would expect to find you in a general topic encyclopedia, you should not have a Wikipedia article under your own name. This is one of the basic Wikipedia policies.  It's on the one of the first help pages, I think.  JesseW 07:01, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Don't DeleteThousands of people around the world actualy do know my name.I gave lectures in various places in NY including 770 Eastern Parkway (Chabad Lubavitch headquarters)which was live broadcast worldwide on 770live in English Hebrew and Russian in front of thousands people.  Since it was created my website  was visited 10s of thousands of times by people from all over the world.It was mentioned on a number of other more popular sites.I was interviewed and profiled by Luke Ford for example.My picture was in Maariv in the begining of November as well as in the archives of Beis Moshiach. Some of my activities are also mentioned  on Chabad Online COL.org.il and Chabad.info.
 * Delete, Even though "Ariel Sokolovsky" has a lot of results on google, I see not reason to keep the article as it is, and I wouldn't change my vote if there's not a serious working on the page that would justify it. --Marianocecowski 11:56, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
