Not notable, can't use prod tag because an admin removed it (&gt;O_o)&gt;  Something  X  &lt;(^_^&lt;) 15:22, 4 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. There are many references to him through google. Most are not in English but he looks probably notable. I think this AfD is premature. The article is poor and just a stub and needs work. I would flag with  at most. ~ Antiselfpromotion (talk) 16:57, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment. I don't speak Polish, but here I think you find a book describing his life. If he was notable enough in Poland to have a biography published, he's probably notable enough for Wikipedia. Somebody who speaks Polish should check this reference and, if possible, also add some material to the article, which really is nothing much. --Crusio (talk) 22:26, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * In light of the discussion below: keep.


 * Keep author of about 30 books in polish--some held in over 40 US/UK libraries, which for a Polish author writing on Polish history, is fairly substantial. But the article really needs some information besides what's there. since everything's in Polish, someone else will have do do the work here. I would like to be a little more confident though about the publisher and nature of the bio. DGG (talk) 00:39, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per DGG and Crusio. Passes WP:BIO based on the published biography, and seems to pass WP:PROF as well. There is a bit more info about the biography that Crusio mentioned at GoogleBooks:. The publisher of the biography, "Wydawnictwo Poznańskie", seems to be well-established as well. Nsk92 (talk) 06:18, 5 June 2008 (UTC)


 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:10, 9 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep as director of an important academic institute, and prolific author of books held by academic libraries. Wydawnictwo Poznańskie is the publishing arm of the Adam Mickiewicz University (one of my Alma maters [or is that almae matres?]), so there's no need to doubt the reliability of the biography. I've picked out some biographical details from amongst the WP:PEACOCK language at the link found by Crusio and put them in the article. Phil Bridger (talk) 10:29, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
