 * Keep. I expanded the article a little. He is definitely not notable as an academic (although he was the initiator of the Swedish and Danish language courses at the University of Bucharest, in 1968 and 1970, respectively), but he is notable as a lexicographer and as a translator. For his work, he was rewarded with the Swedish Order of the Polar Star 1st Class, the Danish Order of the Dannebrog, Swedish Academy's translation prize, and the Romanian Writers' Union translation prize (acc. to his obituary in the magazine of the Romanian Society of Germanists).--Mycomp (talk) 05:18, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep -- The multiple awards confirm his prominence. [But why is this listed as "history-related"?] Peterkingiron (talk) 14:35, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:10, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
