 * Keep. There doesn't appear to be a canonical spelling of the subject's name in the Roman alphabet, so here are some books that use different spellings: "Metodi Stratiev", "Metod Stratiev", "Metodio Stratiev", "Metody Stratiev". I haven't yet tried other possible spellings of "Stratiev" or any searches in Cyrillic, but that's enough to demonstrate notability as a Catholic archbishop.

 * Keep. An archbishop, so clearly notable. The reason given for deletion is not a good one. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:48, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep and close – The nomination doesn't contain a valid rationale for deletion, per criterion listed at WP:DEL-REASON. The nomination is based upon content within the article, rather than upon the availability of reliable sources. Northamerica1000 (talk) 09:00, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
