Mike Staner

 * – ( View AfD View log )

There is no actual clear claim to doing anything that makes him notable. The one source is a primary source, it is his recounding his life to someone else, who then lightly editied it. There are no secondary sources, let alone ones that would show notability John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:34, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment I did find busied passing mentions to either his work or his existence, but nothing that seems to rise to the level of a substantial mention that would lead to passing GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:36, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak delete. While he published his memoirs, I can't find any evidence they have been noticed by media or scholars. Note that in 1999 two books were published: The Eyewitnes and Ties of Blood. Story of Mike Staner as told to Victoria Steele, not sure what is the difference, but again, I can't see evidence either has generated any reception. I am afraid he fails WP:NBIO as well as the WP:NAUTHOR. Ping me if better sources are found. PS. I nominated this for deletion at pl wiki at pl:Wikipedia:Poczekalnia/biografie/2021:08:03:Mieczys%C5%82aw_Staner and will update here if new valid sources or arguments are made there.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 00:41, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep The subject is a notable survivor of the Holocaust whose testimony appears in numerous works including Ordinary Jews: Choice and Survival During the Holocaust; Beyond Violence: Jewish Survivors in Poland and Slovakia; Jewish Families in Europe, 1939-Present; The Holocaust: Europe, the World, and the Jews, 1918 - 1945; The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos, 1933-1945; and plenty more in the Polish language too.

 * Keep I believe Staner would defiantly be considered notable as his experiences have been published in detail in at least two books and are considered part of Holocaust literature. His book was also referenced in Re-examining the Holocaust through Literature, but I do not have a copy to see to what extent. Weber1982 (talk) 22:40, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
