The person has no WP:PROF of any other kind of notability. He was a theologian, who was professor at a university but he wasn't distinguished in his field, he didn't write any significant works that had academic impact and he never held a named chair appointment or a highest-level post.— ZjarriRrethues — ^talk 12:49, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Since above nom. is wrong: He was one of the main representatives in New Testament analysis in Greece (per University of Thessaloniki source-ref 3) wrote in several academic journals and published a number of books in his field espcially, being distinguished in N.T. introductory analysis. (didn't write any significant works that had academic impact mentioned above is still unexplained and subjective)

Note: Considering the unexplained nom and the aggresive national background of the nominator I assume this will turn into another meatpuppetry case (via offline cooperations).Alexikoua (talk) 13:55, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Source 3 that is in Greek doesn't say that(it's a list of professors) and please WP:NPA. None of the sources support that he had any kind of impact with his books, in fact they're only listed and no impact is attributed to his books. If he had any impact at all there would be something on google books, google scholar or even simple google search.--— ZjarriRrethues — ^talk 15:40, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep role at World Council of Churches appears notable and whilst many references are in Greek there are sufficient to document his notability. -- Paul foord (talk) 01:01, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a variety of material in gbooks and gschollar, some of which I've added in the article, especially about descriptions of his crucial role in the first 3 WCC Assemblies and issues about Ecumenism.Alexikoua (talk) 07:41, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not a crucial role, but participation is enough and please add the sources before AfD. AFAIC now it passes the general NN.--— ZjarriRrethues — ^talk 13:48, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Now Zjarri, you may close this. --Doktor Plumbi (talk) 19:11, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
