Was deprodded with the rationale, "easily verifiable that he's deputy minister". Which is true. However, deputy ministers do not qualify under WP:NPOL, and searches did not turn up enough to meet WP:GNG. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 21:37, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Passes NPOL as he served in national wide office as Deputy Minister of Ministry of Local Government Administration. 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝟕𝟐𝟖🧙‍♂️^{Let's Talk !} 09:10, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that applies to NPOL so easily. That guideline is for politicians or judges, typically elected positions and not necessarily appointed positions. At least it's not an obvious keep in that sense. There are a lots of government agencies where even the head wouldn't be notable, much less a #2. I think this is more of a case were WP:GNG would need to be satisfied. KoA (talk) 16:26, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete possibly TOOSOON. It wasn't immediately clear, but Vokrri is not an elected member of the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo. Merely being a government employee is insufficient to meet WP:NPOL. There are a few Google hits about a person of this name in the context of a group called INSID (NBC News quoting him in a story about managing former ISIS fighters), but I am not sure it is the same person as the deputy minister.

Delete per WP:POLOUTCOMES. Deputy ministers in European countries are usually the highest-ranking civil servant, and not a cabinet minister nor a parliamentarian. Please ping me if I am incorrect. Bearian (talk) 17:33, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete My understanding is that being a deputy minister isn't sufficient to meet WP:NPOL. Happy to revise my !vote if this is not correct. MrsSnoozyTurtle 01:32, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
