The two books of this author are published by a e-publishing website run by a journalist and all references are either from this website or from promotional activities to push these books. There are no independent sources to establish notability. Staszek Lem (talk) 16:53, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep Many famous authors financed their books and it is nothing bad. E-Literaci is a literary portal, not the e-publishing portal. It is a website for poets. They publish their poems, especially in anthologies. But the publisher of first two book written by Krzysztof Konopka is Barbara Mazurkiewicz, who is a journalist, poet and publisher. She is a well-known poet and has received many prestigious awards. Krzysztof Konopka's book are famous, because he was very young when he published his first book. But he wrote many other books. In 2018 his new book will have a premiere and the publisher is not E-Literaci, but big publishing house. Krzysztof Konopka as a young author has difficulty publishing books in large publishing houses, because they publish books written by famous authors. But many people read his books. There are other reviews in the Internet. People should give him a chance. His book are very important and a lot of people know it. And there are a lot of independent sources to establish notability.

 * Comment This is a newly created user with an obvious WP:COI who is yet to understand how wikipedia works. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:22, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I do not read Polish, but it's worth noting that half the sources given appear to be user forum links rather than independent sources. 96.127.244.201 (talk) 03:52, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
 * There are a lot of results in GBooks for "Krzysztof Konopka", but they seem to be about another person or other persons as they were published before (often more than a decade before) 2015. I think there might be a notable photographer with this name. A search for "Krzysztof Konopka"+2015 or +2016 doesn't bring up anything in GBooks that would satisfy GNG.

 * Keep Books of this author are real. They are in Polish National Library and Jagiellonian Library like other books. And they are in many libraries in Poland, I checked that. It is difficult to find informations about Krzysztof Konopka in Google, because there are a lot of people with the same name. This page should not be deleted, because it is notable.

 * Comment. Reality is not the same as WP:NOTABILITY. It is difficult to find information about Krzysztof Konopka in Google, because he is a nobody yet. Staszek Lem (talk) 19:43, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete: I cannot find sourcing to show the subject meets WP:GNG.  There isn't even an article on the Polish wikipedia on this person.  It may seem cool to have a wikipedia article about yourself when you are 18, but BLPs like this can always backfire.  This is the only policy based !vote since the nomination.--Milowent • hasspoken  19:12, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
