The result was nomination withdrawn. There was a speedy tag attached to the AfD, but since there has been input from others I cannot speedy this. I'm going to take the speedy tag as a sign that the nomination was withdrawn, though.

Does not meet notability guidelines for people (this being a politician, I assume). Notability guideline for politicians state that articles are notable if they are a politician or judge who have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office, and members or former members of a national, state or provincial legislature. Doesn't look like Mr. Dang has received notable media coverage either.

Speedy Keep. Since he's the president of an international legislature he obviously meets
WP:POLITICIAN. Why would you think he doesn't given you've just cited its provisions? He's also a member of the Cameroon Parliament
[1], incidentally, so he qualifies twice. --

Speedy Keep and Close The subject is a prominent African statesman and is clearly deserving of a better article. The call for deletion is bizarre and I would recommend an immediate closure of this debate.

Speedy Keep Yes it needs to be expanded, but his election in May 2015 definitely give him the notability to have an article.
