 * Speedy Delete. WP:A3. Literally nothing but the subject's bolded name. Okay, maybe not completely nothing (Appears I spoke way too soon). Regardless, content is still way too insufficient, per WP:A7. GabeIglesia (talk) 06:37, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment I'll retract my statement earlier. I think the Deletionist within me got way too ahead of myself. Didn't occur to me to look at the Albanian site. I'll do a better job next time. Sorry, all! GabeIglesia (talk) 23:02, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment we shouldn't make a judgment here based on the length of this page. Other language pages appear to have a lot more content on this subject (although I can't read it so I have no idea what is being said) https://sq.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaban_Demiraj. On the face of it, there appears to be something to be discussed about the notability of the subject as per WP:NACADEMIC, although finding English-language sources could be a challenge.

 * Keep. He appears to pass WP:PROF criteria C3 and C6 as head of a national academy (even based only on the minimal version of the article after the "spoke too soon" comment above; certainly it is very far from an A7 speedy deletion) and I found several Albanian-language obituaries in what look like reliable sources. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:45, 30 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep under SK#1, nom fails to advance a deletion rationale. I have added a cite book to Robert Elsie's Historical Dictionary of Albania where subject gets a whole page, and subject's notability under the professor test is hard to question. Sam Sailor Talk! 15:16, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Article needs translation from the Albanian. Wrote some important works on Albanian language also.Resnjari (talk) 19:00, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
