Self-promotion by User:אלכס סלסקי (which is Hebrew for Alex Selsky). The person described lacks notability, as the person served as an ordinary media-advisor, while the recently established "World Forum of Russian Jewry" lacks clear notability itself (one of quite numerous number of such organizations), and the notability of its administrative staff is far from sufficient. The article has been [http://he.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D7%90%D7%9C%D7%9B%D7%A1_%D7%A1%D7%9C%D7%A1%D7%A7%D7%99&action=edit&redlink=1 deleted for the lack of notability in Hebrew Wikipedia], and moved for deletion in Russian Wikipedia.

Dear Prokurator. it's extremely sad to see that an Israeli, apperantely born in FSU, is the one who argues to arase the page of a one, who devoted all his career to contribute to absorption of Jewish repatriants from former Soviet Union.
The World Forum of Russian Speaking Jewry was established to help the russian speaking Jews worldwide and to accomarate the memory of the Holocoust, and you are the one to say that this is not important to be noted.
As for self PR - all my life I worked to promote the Jewish State and the Russian speaking Israelis. Never paid or lied. So I don't see that I did something not ethical to write a small note about my activity.
Shabat shalom, dear friend.
:: Good luck with your activities. As for your self-promotion, as soon as your organization (or yourself) becomes notable, someone else will certainly write about it. -- Prokurator11 (talk) 10:28, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
::There's nothing at all sad about an Israeli apparently born in the former Soviet Union, or anyone else, editing with a neutral point of view. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

- Delete - What we have is somebody quoted a lot in the press in his professional capacity as a PR rep/spokesperson. What we do not have is significant coverage in independent reliable sources about this person. -- Whpq (talk) 15:50, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

- Delete WP:AUTO. DavidLeighEllis (talk) 19:57, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
- Delete not WP:AUTO. The article being an autobiography is not a valid reason in itself for deletion, but this should be deleted for lack of evidence of coverage in independent reliable sources. I have tried to find sources in the Roman and Cyrillic alphabets, but don't read Hebrew so am accepting the verdict of Hebrew Wikipedia as regards sources in that language.
