Albania is a member of the United Nations, and NATO. Albania has been a potential candidate for accession to the European Union since January 2003, and it formally applied for EU membership on 28 April 2009.

Municipalities of Albania

I have identified off-sets between 2011 CENSUS data and the 2014 merged municipalities' population totals. Please see the Talk-page for details.

I have sent a mail to INSTAT.gov.al asking for help to resolve those discrepancies.

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Badly sourced BLP with no evidence of meeting WP:SPORTBASIC. The best source found in my search was Soccernet, which is just a squad list mention. I have searched under "Aldo Guna" and "Erald Guna". Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 11:08, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Played 32 minutes in Albania’s highest league, continuing in the semi-pro second tier. The source currently cited in the article is very short and far from significant. Neither is this. [ https://www.panorama.com.al/sport/serxho-emini-me-bylisin-do-te-shkelqej-edhe-ne-superiore/ This] is 2/3 quotes from Emini, so doesn’t pass muster either.

Potentially fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. My own searches yield only database sources. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 21:54, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Failure of WP:SPORTCRIT and WP:GNG. Modest career with 8 games in Albania's highest league and several seasons in the semi-pro second tier. Some unsubstantiated reports about big-club scouting; I could not find a single piece of evidence for that. What I found during a WP:BEFORE was duplications of a transfer announcement [1] [2], a short and insignificant piece [3] and a piece about Erzeni's squad where Teqja is mentioned in passing [4].

Unreferenced. Wikipedia is not a gallery. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:12, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. For the reasons given. The page exists as a draft. It does not seem to have been submitted to review prior to being published in the mainspace again.
As a sidenote, Albanian road signs are practically identical to Italian signs, save for the use of the Albanian language instead of Italian (as well as other trivial differences). Unless there is more information given about this, an article for it should not exist in my opinion, and it should remain as a draft until then. EthanL13 | talk 13:19, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is quite easy to find RS for this article, just like for the other articles listed in the cat page. If anyone wants to work on and save this article, I can provide the RS. Ktrimi991 (talk) 01:53, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Now the article has 3 RS, and its format and content are in line with the other articles of road signs. Using the second RS, or others that can be found online, one can write a section with more info on the legislation, the relevant insitutions etc. Some media articles elaborate on the issues with their usage in practice and so on. I myself don't have the time for now. Ktrimi991 (talk) 01:32, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Right now, there is no consensus so we could use a further review of newly added sources to see whether or not they are sufficient to Keep this article. Yes, the article is kind of a gallery but I don't think that reason warrants deletion all on its own.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:02, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs for this article:
Endri Shabani (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

My nom concerns from the first AfD discussion still hold. This subject fails WP:NPOL and still fails WP:ANYBIO or WP:GNG. From cursory search, nothing useful was found too. Also fails WP:NACADEMIC as far as I am concerned. There are no credible claims of significant/importance here. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 16:51, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Fails WP:NACADEMIC and WP:GNG. I can't find anything notable about the topic on the article nor online, and most news articles about them are months to years apart. Deuxde (talk) 16:57, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete now Cyberpower7 (talk) 19:41, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There are numerous reports in the Albanian media. euronews al shqiptarja Cna alPolitico al telegrafi reporter al Τhere is no reliable Albanian journalistic website that does not host news and comments about him. He is certainly an important Albanian political figure whose article will be deleted only because there are no sources for him in English - LefterDalaka (talk) 17:39, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
LefterDalaka, sources do not have to be in English. I looked through the sources provided in the article before !voting. I also looked through the ones you posted here, also. The Euronews and CNA do not appear to be independent of each other. All appear to be rather glancing coverage. I'm having trouble determining reliability of the publications, but I see some tabloid type concerns. What do you think the WP:THREE best sources for WP:SIGCOV are? Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:12, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am not aware that Euronews and Cna are somehow linked. Do you know something I don't know?😊 Actually I brought these sources to highlight one's encyclopedic nature by combining them all together and not just one. Let's say he is a person who is included in the Barometer, he appears on TV channels on various issues, he is now the chairman of a party, in general he is a completely recognizable and influential person in Albania. LefterDalaka (talk) 02:02, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Not seeing anything here that would meet WP:PROF. No publications appearing on GS at all? With a PhD in 2020 would seem likely to be a case of too early career on that front. No opinion on press coverage in Albanian. Would be happy with redirect/slim merge to Nisma Thurje if no other source of notability emerges. Espresso Addict (talk) 02:34, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
