		Elimelech of Lezajsk (1717-1787) was the originator of the concept of tzaddikism, fundamental to the existence of Chasidism, and he became the very first tzaddik in Jewish history.
		Elimelech is said to have been able to alter divine judgments and cure fatal diseases.
		On the anniversary of Elimelech's death on the 21st day of the month of Adar (end of February, beginning of March) the part of the town near to the Jewish cemetery is full of announcements in Yiddish, containing practical advice, such as the way to the telephone, the lavatory and the mikvah.

		Rabbi Elimelech of Lizhensk was a well-known Tzadik, the student of Dov Ber of Mezerich, and the brother of Meshulam Zushia of Anipoli.
		Rebbe Elimelech and his brother Zushia of Anipoli traveled around from town to town to Poland as if reenacting an exile for Hassidic purposes, with the intention of “bringing the multitudes back to the source, inspiring people to repent, and purifying the hearts of the children of Israel”.
		However, I am of a different opinion, that Rabbi Elimelech only told him to go to Lancut, and the permission to lead a congregation was not given to him until a long time after this event, that is to say one year prior to the passing of Rebbe Elimelech.

		In the 18th century Lezajsk was the center of hassidism in Poland.
		The obejctive of the yearly pilgrimage is to pray to to the soul of Rabbi Elimelech which is believed to descend to Earth on the day of his death.
		The pilgrims gather by thousands in the small and incredibly crowded and overheated tomb and spend the entire night in fervent prayer, before they eat and quickly depart for the nearby airports in chartered buses.

		From one point of view it can be treated like normal, 20th century surnames and should not be translated at all (Elimelech Lipman, the name he was referred to by his contemporaries Tzadik Elimelech or a simple transcryption of the name he used, without any English additions).
		I think that it would be good to add a name in hebrew script and the transcryption of the yiddish name as well, but the article itself should be under Elimelech of Lezajsk.
		This way we'd have one article (Elimelech of Lezajsk) and plenty of redirects from different versions of his name, including the three versions of the town's name in yiddish (Lizhensk, Lezhinsk, Lizhinsk).
