This blogger is not notable, nor is his "Serbian Web Journalism School". There are no independent news sources that refer to him or his school. All I can find is self-published work or non-notable references. There was a previous nomination in June 2008, which was appealed and left pending outside sources, see log and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2008_June_7]. His bio on his own website is here, which might help the decision: http://www.ljubisabojic.com/bio.htm#04 Fences and windows (talk) 01:36, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
:The article was also deleted under a slightly different title in June 2008, before being recreated without the accents. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Ljubi%C5%A1a_Boji%C4%87. Fences and windows (talk) 01:45, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Keep, he was [http://www.cnnblogawards.com/nominees.php nominated] for a CNN Blog Award, so he could have some fringe notability at best. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 02:33, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I don't think that indicates notability. Apparently anyone can send their blog in, and then the judges "nominate" a limited number of blogs from the proposed ones. That is a lot different from CNN actively finding and nominating blogs themselves. From the page "We invite you to discover the 12 blogs that were nominated for the final round! Among the hundred applications sent, a special committee - composed of the Management and the people in charge of the Multimedia Department at the CFJ - have selected the following candidates that remain in the race for the "Grand Prix" and the "Judges' Special Prizes"". — LinguistAtLarge • Talk 16:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment. Is the "CFJ/CNN European award for the best student news blog" really notable, and enough to show notability? It got only a smattering of coverage in the French press last year, and there's nothing about these nominations: http://news.google.co.uk/archivesearch?um=1&ned=uk&hl=en&q=cfj+cnn+blog. p.s. I would be surprised if the creator of this page weren't Mr Bojic himself. Fences and windows (talk) 03:05, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

- Weak delete: I am a little bit concerned that there might be additional evidence of notability which we are not seeing due to language differences but what I am seeing in English is probably not enough. A few of his articles get as far as Google News, so I don't think he is just some random blogger but I don't think he quite makes it over the line to be a notable journalist, at least not yet. --DanielRigal (talk) 09:42, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment if he is notable in another language, then the article belongs on that language's Wikipedia rather than en.Wikipedia. twirligigT tothe C 19:20, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
::*Comment. If a subject is notable in one language then it is notable in all languages. Wikipedia is one encyclopaedia in multiple languages. I do agree that the lack of an article in any other language is not encouraging but it is not fatal. I think is is pretty clear that this article is going to get deleted but lets do it for the right reasons. --DanielRigal (talk) 13:21, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
