fails WP:DIPLOMAT. simply being an ambassador does not guarantee you an article and coverage merely confirms he is an ambassador. [1]. LibStar (talk) 13:26, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - covered by numerous reliable sources, a Director-General at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs seems notable enough to me. He did "participate in a significant way in events of particular diplomatic importance that have been written about in reliable secondary sources", for example he signed the agreement about the return of the Russian debt to Slovenia.[2] --Eleassar ^{my talk} 14:50, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. He is a notable ambassador (Slovenia and Russia are key allies) and also former foreign policy advisor to a Prime Minister, an important role in a nation's foreign policy.--TM 01:53, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - covered by numerous reliable sources. Dont really see the reason for this Afd to be honest.--BabbaQ (talk) 16:01, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

did you actually search for sources? I've noticed you simply copy keep arguments from someone else or otherwise it's the briefest keep per somebody else without explanation or search for sources. LibStar (talk) 16:23, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I did infact do a quick Google search and came up with 2,910 hits. Also did I find a Slovenian Wikipedia article which shows that the person has interest in slovenia too. Thats good enough for me to stand firm behind my Keep.--BabbaQ (talk) 16:53, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In your reason for putting up this article for Afd you state that it fails WP:DIPLOMAT, its time to read trough WP:DIPLOMAT again because this article simply does not fail WP:DIPLOMAT.--BabbaQ (talk) 17:06, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It would be better if you provide more detailed explanation of your vote. See WP:GOOGLEHITS for your invalid use of that argument. LibStar (talk) 02:01, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
