The result was keep. (For those who are wondering, notable enough for one Wikipedia is indeed notable enough for all.) --Sam Blanning(talk) 02:28, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Completely and utterly fails WP:BIO. Hmm, his best known role was on the TV show ATV Turkey. The show's article itself is a stub, and gets very few hits on Google. Delete. Diez2 01:58, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Google hits are misleading here as the ATV Turkey site is in Turkish. I'd be leery of deleting this article without first hearing from natives of Turkey. If the show is as popular as the articles indicate, then the subject would meet WP:BIO. B.Wind 02:37, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep - Just a hunch here. Yankee Rajput 03:04, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The nom suggests that being best known for role on ATV Turkey confirms non-notability. It appears the opposite. Per WP:BIO, "Notable actors and television personalities who have appeared in well-known films or television productions." --Oakshade 07:50, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, meets WP:BIO criteria. Needs lots of expansion and a major cleanup. --Terence Ong (C | R) 08:40, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Terribly short, yes. But we can't delete this based on an English Google search. We need Turkish input.- Mgm|(talk) 10:20, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or am I missing something here? If this person is well known in the Turkish entertainment industry then an article in the Turkish Wiktionary is a given. No article in the English Wikipedia is required unless the subject becomes notable in the English speaking entertainment industry or becomes newsworthy outside of Turkey.

- You're missing the fact that the "English" in "English Wikipedia" solely means that its articles are written in the English language. Forcing a language requirement into our WP:BIO criteria, which has no such requirement, is systemic bias. Uncle G 18:30, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- UncleG is right. English is only the language and has nothing to do with the subject. - Mgm|(talk) 09:04, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep But needs obvious development. Linuxaurus 15:35, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
