This article fails to demonstrate the subject's notability by showing that he has "received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." Eddie Blick (talk) 01:28, 24 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep The article title is misspelled. It should be Simon Pollak. There is plenty of secondary coverage and I'm going to add some of that. He was one of the earliest U.S. ophthalmologists (first one in St. Louis, first eye/ear clinic west of Mississippi), in addition to his work founding the school for the blind. I'll move to the appropriate spelling. EricEnfermero (Talk) 02:36, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep with the correct spelling Simon Pollak. An online search with this spelling reveals plenty of reliable resources to work with and establish WP:BIO notability. -- IsaacSt (talk) 03:58, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY. The as-nominated article already had a plausible case for WP:GNG but now the case is clear. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:52, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
