I took the information from some Turkish websites and the name of the historian ıs being mentioned in different wikipedia articles..(And actually internal lınk provided even though there isnt a separete article ın his name).Why to delete it?
For instance;
In September 2005, Berktay and his fellow historians from different academic backgrounds (Murat Belge, Edhem Eldem, Selim Deringil and many others) held the controversial conference...
Selim Deringil "The Well-Protected Domains: Ideology and the Legitimation of Power in the Ottoman Empire, 1876-1909" p 139-150

- Good job on copying the text here, but where are the references that prove that this guy meets the criteria?--Svetovid 18:07, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
At least three wikipedia article mentions his name and and cite his works, ı think one doesnt need to save the world to have a place in wikipedia, right? i can improve the article in the future or somebodyelse can do it, for now im finding this discussion a bit futile and going to remove this delete thing...--laertes d 18:37, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
