Keep. Notable historian, recipient of the Armenian Presidential Award: [1], [2], [3] etc. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 10:49, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. He's notable, you could search his name in French transliteration - Raymond Kévorkian. Google has 11500 materials on him [4], among them "Armenian Weekly" (calling him "renowned historian"), Macmillan, Gomidas Institute, Amazon, etc. Gazifikator (talk) 14:08, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Topic passes WP:GNG: [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]. Northamerica1000^(talk) 15:19, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. Appears to be an authority on Armenian studies. Cites are not high but are not expected to be in this area. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:28, 28 May 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Keep. Per Vejvančický only. I'm not sure some of the other arguments for keeping are that strong, but Vejvancicky's is. Lord Roem (talk) 03:06, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
