Mother's Day or Parent's Day?

Please someone from Albania check Talk:Mother's_Day#Albania. Has Parent's Day replaced Mother's Day in Albania? Are both celebrated? --Enric Naval (talk) 12:51, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Only Mother's day is celebrated.--— ZjarriRrethues — ^talk 09:51, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Different categories for people from Albania and People who are ethnic Albanians

There are two main categories which deal with nationality and ethnicity of the people.

One is [[Category:People by nationality]] and another is [[Category:People by ethnicity]].

I noticed that Nationality: In some areas of the world, one's nationality is determined by their ethnicity, rather than citizenship. but still, as far as I noticed, all countries have categories for people which are their citizens and all (significant in number, except Albanian) ethnicities have categories for people who belong to that ethnicity.

What do members of this project mean about following the example of other ethnicities and citizenships and creating separate categories for people who are ethnic Albanians and people who are citizens of Albania? .

Comments are welcome.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 10:01, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Help with Arian Demolli

Hello,

I'm with Wikiproject Unreferenced BLP Rescue. I was working through the backlog of unreferenced biographies of living people and came across Arian Demolli, an Albania TV presenter which I have not been able to source. I was wondering if a member of Wikiproject Albania could lend a hand. Is there a non-English reliable source available to verify the materials in the article? Is the TV presenter notable? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 20:59, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

An article on TV ERA, the only channel exclusively broadcasted in Albanian language in Macedonia, is much needed in Wikipedia. Personally I am not convinced that Arian Demolli himself passes WP:ENT, although this may be only the result of the status of underdevelopment of the media on Albanian personalities in Macedonia, or of my inability to find internet sources, and my ignorance on Macedonia in general. Note that he wouldn't have any notability for his soccer skills per WP:NSOCCER--Doktor Plumbi (talk) 11:37, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! The article is currently under a PROD. -- Whpq (talk) 11:19, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

New stub templates

Hi all - just a heads-up that, because of the very large number of Albania geography stubs, there are now twelve new stub templates relating to Albanian geography, one for each of the counties of Albania. At present, they do not have separate categories, though those will probably be created, dependant on the number of stubs which use the new templates. The new templates are simply named for the 12 counties, as follows:

• {{Berat-geo-stub}}
• {{Dibër-geo-stub}}
• {{Durrës-geo-stub}}
• {{Elbasan-geo-stub}}
• {{Fier-geo-stub}}
• {{Gjirokastër-geo-stub}}
• {{Korçë-geo-stub}}
• {{Kukës-geo-stub}}
• {{Lezhë-geo-stub}}
• {{Shkodër-geo-stub}}
• {{Tirana-geo-stub}}
• {{Vlorë-geo-stub}}

I hope they will be as useful for your project as they will almost certainly be for us stub-sorters! Please contact us at WT:WSS if you have any questions or suggestions about the new stubs. Cheers! Grutness...wha? 07:56, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Note: Please do not create separate categories yet for these templates - they will be created soon enough if certain stub-sorting criteria are met (mainly relating to numbers of stubs currently using the templates). Grutness...wha? 03:11, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Templates and Articles

There's a template about the Chams and one about the Arbereshe, so how about one about the Arvanites?--Kushtrim123 (talk) 19:07, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

It's not a bad idea, but it'll be a very large template so it'd be better to start it on your userspace and finish it there until its full.--— ZjarriRrethues — ^talk 19:41, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
