Although this person has led a very interesting life, I'm afraid I don't see anything in the article that's evidence of notability per Wikipedia's criteria. ... discospinster _talk 03:01, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• Keep Also according to the Wikipedia notability page, one of the criteria for notability is that a person is supposed to has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field. According to this article, there are a number of accounts by Fr. Borys Gudziak, rector of the Ukrainian Catholic University, Taras Antoshevskyj, Director of the Relgious Information Service of Ukraine, and Lesya Krypyakevych, director of the St. Volodymyr Foundation who lend their thoughts on his contributions to the Ukrainian Catholic Church, including Fr. Gudziak who says explicitly, "Я переконаний, що відхід навіть одного священики з цього покоління стає великою втратою для цілої Церкви, тим більше, коли йдеться про такого обдарованого священика, як о. Павло." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.14.162.253 (talk) 03:52, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• Keep - According to the notablility article, it says the person must be "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded". You, yourself admitted that he led an interesting life and I don't see how he is any different or less interesting from other Ukrainian activists or clergymen who do have wikipedia pages like Jack Chanin, Oleh Mahlay, Innocent Lotocky, Slau, Ed Evanko, Victor J. Pospishil, Jules C. E. Riotte, etc.

• Keep - Cursory Google search supplies multiple sources; his death in particular got quite a bit of coverage. DoctorKubla (talk) 11:38, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• Keep - this clinches it for me "the first priest of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church to be legally ordained in [the] Ukraine following the collapse of the Soviet Union and emergence of the Church from its underground."--MacRusgail (talk) 17:45, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
• Keep. Per the comment above - that seems sufficient.Faustian (talk) 06:31, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
