There do not appear to be sufficient sources (either in the article or google) to establish this person's notability. Ahecht (TALK

Wielkopolski Słownik Biograficzny is the most important biographical dictionary for this part of Poland. He got also a biography in Polski Słownik Biograficzny, the most important Polish biographical dictionary. Kmicic (talk) 14:30, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that an entry in a biographical dictionary meets the requirements of WP:BASIC and WP:DICTIONARY. --Ahecht (TALK

In this case: yes. Kmicic (talk) 16:57, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: unless article drastically improves, based on rationale below.

Kmicic: I did a Google search and came upon only Polish language links. I know that an article with only foreign language links is not disqualified from being posted to English language Wikipedia. However, the results of translations I was able to obtain at Google Translate as written are meagre and do not establish notability per se, IMO. If you can expand the article, then fine. References to his father and brother are equally non-notable and add nothing to the article but redlinks. Good Luck. Quis separabit? 14:44, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- It is normal stub. Polski Słownik Biograficzny contains most important people in Polish history, so it is sure that Jarosław Leitgeber is notable enough to have an article in Wikipedia. Information about notable family mameber is important information. Kmicic (talk) 14:49, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No, his "family members" have not been established as nontable in any way, nor has he yet, based on the info provided here. If you wnat the article to saty you have to prove he is notable. The onus is on you as the article creator. Yours, Quis separabit? 15:04, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Two other Leitbergers has also articles in Polski Słownik Biograficzny (PSB), which means that they are one of most important people in history of Poland, selected by editors PSB. For anybody who know something about history of Poland it is obvious. If for you no, its YOURS problem. Kmicic (talk) 16:57, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Kmicic: "they are one of most important people in history of Poland" -- really? If that were the case I suspect that considerably more information would be available online about Jarosław and his family, and that the Jarosław Leitgeber article would have been created long ago. In any event, again, you have to prove the subject is notable. Quis separabit? 18:02, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural keep. Just looking at this,[1] I can see that a lot can be said about this writer-turned-publisher from the partitioned Poland but if you start with a stub no wonder you end up here. Good luck with further development, Poeticbent talk 17:13, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That may or may not be the case, but for notability to be gauged by editor in English-language Wikipedia some translation is going to be needed. It's not anyone else's responsibility but the editor who believes the article should not be deleted to provide salient backup for that position in the vernacular. Quis separabit? 18:39, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Poeticbent talk 17:31, 8 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: much improved. Prima facie case made. Dziekujemy bardzo. Quis separabit? 22:47, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Has an entry in Polski Słownik Biograficzny which is an automatic notability-pass for Poland-related biographies. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:55, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
