The result was keep. As I understand the discussion, the nominator accepted that the actor is notable. DGG ( talk ) 17:51, 20 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

• Keep: Actor seems notable in Albania and apparently also in surrounding countries such as Serbia, Macedonia, and Bosnia, especially as a stage actor (see http://gazetablic.com/nuk-ka-asnje-parti-politike-qe-te-mos-kete-influence-ne-teater/ , http://gazetajnk.com/?cid=1,975,742 , and http://www.zhurnal.mk/content/?id=1312131172027). - Takeaway (talk) 01:23, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
• Comment: article should be expanded to show his notability as a stage actor. - Takeaway (talk) 01:25, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
• Takeaway-Thats true-the article makes it sound like he is a film only actor which is why I put that up there, and then seeing he was just basically a extra in unotable films seemed like a complete waste of space. Wgolf (talk) 01:27, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
• Comment-I did make the format better for the refs (and took out the link for the film and just kept his own IMDB page up) Wgolf (talk) 01:32, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
• Çomment: In J.A.C.E., at least if I have understood it correctly from one article about him in Albanian, he was one of the nominees for best actor at the Tokyo Film Festival in 2011 but didn't win, so not really just an extra. In the notable film Lorna's Silence, he is also one of the main actors. - Takeaway (talk) 01:35, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

  -Ha okay, I guess it was just not a well written article! At least I did manage to catch this! Wgolf (talk) 01:37, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]

  Again, the problem also lies in the fact that just clicking on the notability search buttons at the top of this AfD page, leads to Anglophone media. Not a very reliable way to research the notability of people who are famous outside of the Anglophone sphere. - Takeaway (talk) 01:44, 4 October 2014 (UTC) [reply ]
