fails WP:DIPLOMAT. simply being an ambassador does not guarantee notability. no evidence of meeting WP:DIPLOMAT, gnews. LibStar (talk) 13:17, 28 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. Per nominator: this ambassador appears not appear to satisfy WP:DIPLOMAT.  I can find no references to any significant contribution made to events of particular diplomatic importance. -- Lear's Fool (talk | contribs) 13:37, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep He was the Ambassador of a nearby country to another. Each country has significant relations with each other and thus he has participated significantly, justifying keeping the article.--TM 20:15, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Easy keep here: subject has an entry in a paper encyclopedia (which is cited in the article). Geschichte (talk) 08:22, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I added more sources, and also moved the page. Geschichte (talk) 09:00, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep per Geschichte. Third party coverage in an paper encyclopedia is more than enough to justify inclusion per WP:GNG. Rettetast (talk) 08:34, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I have added the fact that he was awarded the Royal Order of St. Olav + a ref. Rettetast (talk) 13:19, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I was looking for that. Even more notable now. Geschichte (talk) 18:01, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets the general notability requirements of Wikipedia, since he has significant coverage in many reliable, independent sources. Remember that WP:DIPLOMAT is only to establish inherent notability where it would otherwise not be through other reliable, independent sources about the diplomat in particular.
