In order to support an encyclopedic, stand-alone article as this living person's biography, the prose and references should indicate he is either the subject of substantial coverage by multiple reliable sources or otherwise meets any of the criteria at WP:ANYBIO, WP:ACADEMIC, or WP:AUTHOR. Below are some links that might lead to reliable sources on which to base article content, and most importantly, this subject's notability:

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

One more note regarding sources: I've removed an inline external link (Gazeta-Nacional.com) that I assume was supposed to serve as a source of information on this subject. The source in question is most likely not an acceptable source for anything about this subject because it is closely associated and writes praise-laden "coverage." See, for example, this coverage stating "Së dyti, Marinaj është njëri prej kontribuesve më të rëndësishëm në suksesin e gazetes “Nacional”" ("Secondly, Marinaj is one of the most important contributors to the success of the Gazetes Nacional)...followed by a heavy dose of his non-notable philosophy. I hope this and any other sourcing concerns can be discussed here. Cheers! JFHJr (㊟) 05:47, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

I think the article should be deleted, among others on behalf of rules for "WP:ANYBIO, WP:ACADEMIC, WP:AUTHOR. Same applies for article about Protonism. If you read that article, the main source is the book called Protonism, published by "Shtepia Botuese Nacional", no credible source at all. One of the main contribturos to the articles is iser:Johnspring who confirmed in a comment to a member that he is strongly affiliated with Gjeke Marinaj. Additionaly, he has put himself to infobox on article Albanians and also in the list "Notable Albanians". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.236.90.41 (talk) 00:41, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

International Poet of Merit Award

There is no credible source for the award called "International Poet of Merit Award" by "International Society of Poets" expekt a non-professional personal blog site affiliated with Gjeke Marinaj. Therefore it should be removed not complying with Wikipedia policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.236.90.110 (talk) 00:12, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
