Improvement. This article was very nationalistic and cited non credible sources, Kaleshi himself stated that he was mainly interested in art and humanity and that he belonged to the Macedonian, Albanian and Turkish people. I also removed some irrelevant information. If anyone has some issues please tell me on the talk page. I am willing to improve this article even further in the future and add more info about his artistic contributions.
