  • Delete. Non-notable. But remember: non-English articles should generally be sent to Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English before listing in AfD (unless you know for yourself that it does not belong on Wikipedia, English or not). — TheKMantalk 18:47, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. Article is written in Norwegian and is about a Norwegian surname, and just states that it is a contraction of "Alm" and "Ås" and that it originated in Åsane. The most famous Almås in Norway is probably the TV-host Jon Almaas of the popular TV show Nytt på nytt, and he probably is worthy of an article. If we had an article on Jon Almaas I would support redirecting this there, but we don't so it will have to be delete. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:32, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
