 * Keep - obviously there is a bias in what sources would be available online. The organization folded pre-World Wide Web, and as such not much online trace. But let's keep in mind that the organization effectively acted as a de facto embassy. I'm certain that if we had access to archives of Zëri i Popullit in the 1970s, we'd find plenty of mentions and input. https://www.revistarambla.com/ismail-kadare-en-barcelona/ affirms that the association acted as Albanian representation and had monopoly of travel to Albania. However - https://www.jstor.org/stable/41325178 mentions a slightly different name, "Asociación de Amigos del Pueblo Albanés". --Soman (talk) 00:52, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment - I also want to stress that as the creator of the article, I was not notified of this AfD. --Soman (talk) 00:53, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep As noted by Soman, there is a bias in available English sources. I'd say that the page should be kept and improved, rather than deleted to be sucked into the black hole like all the other pages on here which are deleted, sometimes to never be seen again.

 * Delete. Small, defunct organization and so little is available that there is not anything to write about. Stifle (talk) 09:04, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep and improve per . I would like to see more about what the organization actually is or was if sources permit it. All it says right now is that it was an organization. But, what kind? Huggums537 (talk) 04:38, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Aside from the sources in the article, the NGO is covered in the eighth chapter of La Transición en directo: narrativas digitales de una historia reciente and Aragón Digital. Its activities (in particular its connections to the PCE (M-L)) seem to have significant coverage from multiple independent RS. Page needs to be improve to include more of this, but WP:DEL-CONTENT reminds us that [i]f editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. And, since this is a non-commercial organization with activities that had international scope and were covered significantly by multiple independent RS, this article passes the relevant notability criteria of WP:NGO.— Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 16:26, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
