  • delete: After cleaning up this article to get a good look at what remains after the removal of unreferenced padding, and having searched the internet to see what the subject has been doing, I am convinced that he does not meet notability requirements. He's an academic, but that certainly doesn't bring notability by itself. He has published a book, which does not seem to have made any great or lasting impact, and a few articles that aren't widely cited. George Custer's Sabre (talk) 09:40, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep he's well-known in Turkey (it's the same guy - compare his photo) -[1][2][3][4][5] МандичкаYO 😜 10:43, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Мандичка, thank you. But do you have sources in English that might help non-Turkish-speaking editors make a decision. Regards, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 11:16, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • No. You don't need sources in English. Just use Google translate and you can see the articles are about him. МандичкаYO 😜 11:18, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
After translating the sources I can see he writes some columns and blogs in Turkey. Is this sufficient to establish notability. I don't think so. But let's see what other editors think. George Custer's Sabre (talk) 04:54, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
