Fails WP:SOLDIER. Article reads like a memorial. Non notable soldier Gbawden (talk) 08:34, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Can you be more precise as to how the article sounds like a memorial? Also, Tadeusz Anders was the youngest brother of Władysław Anders. This article is to further expand on the Anders military family. Adamstasz (talk) 16:00, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - We don't make articles to nobody for their brothers or sisters. We only care for everybody's own notability. This person does not look so notable to me. --Why should I have a User Name?

 * The creation of this article was a result of the GLAM/Józef Piłsudski Institute of America project. There are personal files of his located at the archives of the Józef Piłsudski Institute of America, as cited in the bibliography of the article. Adamstasz (talk) 16:40, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Answer - I only replied to your reference to the brother('s notability which cannot be inherited). Did not even vote. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 16:43, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I must agree - familial relations is not an argument. I retract that statement. Adamstasz (talk) 17:16, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Wikiprojct userfy under GLAM/Józef Piłsudski Institute of America. Unfortunately, this entry does fail WP:SOLDIER, and WP:BIO states that being a relative to a famous person is not enough for notability. Now, if the Institute published an article which would explain why this person was important, or such... this is not sufficient. Keep However, being awarded Virtuti Militari does the trick - this is WP:SOLDIER first criteria. Ping User:Gbawden, User:Adamstasz, User:Why should I have a User Name?. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 10:49, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
 * "Withdraw my nomination without prejudice - My fault, didn't see the Virtuti Militari. However if there is no citation for the VM I will renominate Gbawden (talk) 06:31, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I've added two citations - one is from an English-language list of Virtuti Militari recipients. The other is from a Polish-language list that is more precise: it states that Tadeusz Konstanty Anders was awarded the fifth class Virtuti Militari for his service as Major in the Polish Armed Forces in the 1939-1945 time period. Not to be confused with Tadeusz Andersz who was a captain and pilot in the same service, same time period, and is listed several names below. Adamstasz (talk) 18:09, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
