Per this copyright statement on commons [1] - this is an autobiography - and I'll note that the same user created this on 5 different language Wikipedias (en, he, no, pl, sv, zh) - so the cross wiki count is insignificant in this case. This is an art teacher that teaches at the local high school. He has perhaps coverage in local papers - nothing else. He has exhibited in local galleries. BEFORE shows very little sourcing on him. There is a lifeguard, with the same name, who I believe (based on the photographs/age and no connection implied here - or in the pieces on the lifeguard - they are both from the same area in Israel, but this is not an uncommon name) is a different individual who was in the news in 2017 - [2] [3] (the lifeguard isn't notable, nor would this event make the artist notable if it were the same individual) Icewhiz (talk) 07:03, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

- Delete fails WP:GNG. Whats interesting is if you look at the gallery images he has uploaded, he is piping his user name to his real name, in addition to clearly stating own work, see [4]. The user in question has also not edited any pages other than this one. - GalatzTalk 12:38, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- As you might see on his DodaRuti commons talk-page they had some "issues" regarding copyright of several uploaded images - that were apparently resolved, on the commons, by declaring to be the creator - e.g. post to User_talk:Mbch331, or post to User_talk:Natuur12.Icewhiz (talk) 12:44, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
