 * Delete. The person described in the article doesn't appear to meet WP:BIO notability standards.  If he's more notable than the article makes him sound, it's hard for me to verify- I googled his name and didn't find the evidence, but since I don't read Turkish, I may have missed something. -FisherQueen (Talk) 18:10, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Another article written by Sedat Laciner about his collegues at the minor International Strategic Research Organization. The Turgurt Demirtepe article at Turkish Wikipedia was deleted unanimously, see . Bertilvidet 18:43, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Why does it say 2nd nomination? This seems to be the first. Bertilvidet 18:46, 8 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Don't Delete - The article is quite brief and a bit of a mess, but I found 4,960 hits on a yahoo search for "Turgut Demirtepe" and it's obvious to me that he is a notable academic in his area of studies. The article could definitely use some editing, but I don't see any reason to delete it.--David Straub 14:06, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Interesting, a Google search returns 57 hits - of which the vast majority are on Wiki, its mirror sites or sites of of the institution he works at, which is heavily boosted on Wiki. Bertilvidet 14:45, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I looked through the first 50 hits on yahoo and I caught 6 sites that were wiki or wikimirror sites. I can't read turkish either so it's difficult for me to say what exactly all the other sites were, but the search results said 4,900 hits. ––David Straub 04:53, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
