  • Question I'm not seeing a very high EV. He seems to have published one obscure book, and a very very obscure newspaper. I wonder why he has a wiki article at all. Is there more that I am missing? Mattximus (talk) 02:26, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well Sassounian is a very notable figure in the Armenian diaspora and especially in its literary and journalism circles. He has received awards from heads of states, assemblies and lobbies, and many other organizations. He is a regular contributor to the Huffington Post and the Los Angeles Times and is cited in many books and journals. Just typing his name in Google yields hundreds of thousands of results. I thought the article portrays his notability quite well. If not, I'll be more than happy to expand it a bit more. Proudbolsahye (talk) 07:58, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
