Bottom line: The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (biographies) requirement. Being a survivor of Auschwitz does not confer automatic notability (through if this is deleted, it should be redirected to and summary-merged with List of victims and survivors of Auschwitz. I tried looking for reliable sources and I see nothing; some mentions in passing, yes, but not even a dedicated biography I was able to find anywhere. The fact that the article claims the potential hoax of The Man who Broke into Auschwitz as its main source does not inspire confidence, either.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Redirect to List of victims and survivors of Auschwitz. The story is most likely drawn from a fictitious Holocaust memoir mentioned in the article, with an i-link to an eye-opening controversy. There might be a grain of truth in his bio, but not enough to justify this entry. Poeticbent talk 00:45, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
