Self Promotion

edit

This article is nothing more than just self promotion and was created and constantly edited by the person himself. The Rypcord. 22:37, 15 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

It looks like some anonymous user based in Los Angeles has taken upon him/her-self to agree with you and vandalize the page. I don't particularly feel like restoring it, when nothing of significance links to this page and I agree with the sentiment if not the action. - 209.131.48.66 (talk) 19:58, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
It is painfully clear this was written by the person that is the subject of article. This article hardly meets Wikipedia:Notability... 68.54.135.8 (talk) 05:38, 13 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
So how do we get it deleted? 173.172.95.186 (talk) 15:12, 26 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
This document was not written by the subject but by a student of the historical period who is not even acquainted personally in any way with the subject.--Aboudaqn (talk) 03:02, 10 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Notable

edit

I found this man's diary to be writings of a "high degree of interest", because he is a unique, documented product of the intersection of politics and science. Therefore leave the article in its current form for being "notable" by the earlier definition in quotes. The encyclopedia will be the worse for not having this article. --196.215.189.102 (talk) 19:30, 14 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Self Promotion

edit

I agree that this article is nothing more than just self-promotion and it is clear, also from links to it from popular Polish magazines such as POLITYKA, that it was created and it is constantly edited by the person himself. I also agree that this article hardly meets Wikipedia standards becasue it is poorly written and contains mostly (controversial) political opinions, not facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.170.255.231 (talk) 06:29, 26 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hoover Institution elevates status

edit

Please re-read revised article: as of January 2011, the Hoover Institution had accepted this man's diary, papers, and photos into its large, historical archive related to the former Soviet Union: do not delete this entry.--Aboudaqn (talk) 03:02, 10 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Correcting a false assumption

edit

I am not the author. The Wikipedia article was written by a person I do not know, years ago. My only contribution was to provide the author with the link to my publications and presentations (in replying to the email in which he sent me the link to the article).
