 * Keep Hmmm, I'm not really seeing a problem with the sources. They look like credibly reliable Romanian language sources (especially the Forbes piece - getting an article all about him in Forbes is a very strong indicator that he is of some significance) and seem to demonstrate that he is sufficently notable as a long-established businessman in his country. Looking up Ziarul Financiar, it sounds like the Romanian equivalent of The Financial Times, which would make me inclined to think it is a reliable source too. It certainly doesn't sound like a tabloid rag. Most of the sources I am finding for him are from Romanian financial/business newspapers, indicating that he is notable in Romania, and that makes him perfectly valid enough to have an English article. The main problem with the article is its tone and language, which is not really as neutral as one would like, but I don't see a really valid reasons for deletion. All it needs is some editing for tone. Mabalu (talk) 15:44, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - I looked over the sources and added one (I know Romanian); it very much looks like solid coverage in multiple independent outlets. He may not be the most sensational figure in either fashion design or business, but I see no compelling reason to delete. - Biruitorul Talk 18:17, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - I am the creator of this article, but I find him very notable in the industry of fashion in Romania, and is also a millionaire. I am not sure he is the first king of garment, but he is nicknamed the "King of Garment" and has an experience in Romania of several decades. He is also an exporter. His brand Seroussi is fighting for the top of Romania in terms of men's suites, alongside famous Bigotti - even on European level. Pretty much every mall has his shops. Moreover, he was in Top 500 Forbes of Romania and in Top 500 Capital. He also appears in Ziarul Financiar. Ziarul Financiar & Capital are top 3 largest publications of economy in Romania. They also have non-online editions. Seroussi started many years ago to export a lot too, and his fortune reached 100 million euros (or more) at some moment. His investments were around some hundreds in Romania. - Fashion moda Talk 19:50, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
