Challenged G11. Unambiguous promotion of a possibly notable subject. Content is not very encyclopedic.
WP:NOT dictates that Wikipedia is not a place to promote.

Oppose: I'm genuinely not sure what the nom is referring to. I agree that "modern-sensibility-imbued" sounds a bit strange, but other than that...Brigade Piron (

Keep, definitely not a G11 and from the references and links (except the one dead one) he seems to be notable enough for an article to be written. -

Keep (disclaimer: creator). I am pretty sure he passes
Wikipedia:Notability (writers). Sources in English are sparse, but there are more in Polish, and presumably in Czech. Here's a Polish ref - article looks reliable - that he is one of the best known Czech fantasy and SF writers:
[1]. His books have numerous reviews on Polish book/fantasy/sf websites, such as
[2] or
[3]. That said, I admit I am not finding any coverage of him in mainstream press, but then it's not that common for fantasy/sf writers to receive such coverage - we have plenty of English authors who were never mentioned in mainstream press (NYT, etc.) but are still undoubtedly notable. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|
