[edit] Alkan Chaglar

Journalist for a newspaper that doesn't have its own article, and probably isn't notable enough for one either. No other evidence of notability. the wub "?!" 16:53, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. As others have pointed out, countries like Cyprus are underrepresented in Wikipedia because there aren't as many people with the skills and interest to create articles about those countries. Besides, his academic interest in crypto-Christians sounds interesting. TruthbringerToronto 19:31, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Being a journalist does not equate being notable. --Ezeu 02:47, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Provisional Keep. Being a journalist does equate to being notable, if the journalist in question writes for a publication with a circulation greater than 5,000 copies (which it appears that this one might[1]). Could someone who speaks the language please attempt to verify on the paper's website (linked from his article)?-Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 15:28, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep It seems to be a London paper for the Cypriot community. It's large enough to get advertising for real estate which usually means it's got significant circulation to make it notable.
