DePRODed by an SPA -- created this page in May and had no edits since, except to contest the PROD. Sourcing is flimsy and based on digital, potentially self-published books and offline sources, and also see potential COI from authors cited in text and sources provided.

 * Weak keep. The man did exist, but the sourcing is very weak. I removed one non-RS blog and am tempted to remove another (The Seforim Blog). Here is a Hebrew-language source that also just mentions him in passing as a contemporary of Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook. There is no corresponding article about him on the Hebrew Wikipedia.

 * Keep Whether as a religious figure or as an author, the claim of notability is strong. Better sourcing is needed, though the systemic bias and lack of sourcing for individuals living in his era make finding English-language sources more challenging. Alansohn (talk) 13:37, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Slightly obscure but illustrious 19th-century WP:AUTHOR and philosopher nonetheless whose teachings are still resonating in study halls far beyond his native Lithuania. If someone will take the time to systematically uncover the bits and pieces about this subject that are scattered about, this article will have a nice future.
