Talk:Culture of Albania

Removing Prod Tag
I'm removing the prod tag from this article. As it is, the article is little more than a list, so I can understand the argument for the category being sufficient. However, I believe that there is potential for the article to becoming encyclopedic by actually summarizing Albanian culture. See Culture of Pakistan for an example of what I'm thinking of.

 * It would be nice if you could start the real article... ;-) But I'm getting your point, and I'm changing it from a cleanup tag to a stub tag. Deleteme42 22:00, 24 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I may actually give it a go at some point. I have a number of articles I've been procrastinating on though, so I can't promise anything. Of course, I also will need to learn about Albanian culture, so it should be educational for me if I get around to it. ScottW 23:13, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Ladder golf?
I've removed this as I suspect it's a hoax:
 * Albania's recognized National Sport is Bola (Ladder Golf). The Albanians derived the name of the game from the Spanish throwing weapon called Bolas, which had weights on the ends of an interconnected cord.  Each year Albanians from around the country congregate in the capital city of Tirana for the annual Bola championship, where the winner is given a key to the city and dressed in jewels.  For the past 5 years the same family has dominated the game

It was added by a user with no other edits. I couldn't find much evidence for it; links like this and this could easily be copying from Wikipedia. Articles bolas and ladder golf don't make any connection to Albania. I'm dubious enough not to risk leaving it at unreferenced. If it's genuine, then of course readd it, but please find a reliable source to cite! jnestorius(talk) 20:52, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
