Now I have done a little research on the subject, and it proved to be the articles have been wrong about how many Albanians live in New York city!
In this article about The Bronx, it says that 2.54% of the Bronx's population speaks Albanian. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_The_Bronx
So 34,891 thousand people speaks Albanian only in the Bronx! Then appears the whole article credibility if they only live 32,428 thousand Albanians throughout New York where they live only 34,891 in The Bronx.
In Brooklyn article says that the Albanians living in 5000 in Brooklyn.
A few months ago in the Queens article that lived around 60,000 Albanians in Queens.
Even now, we have figured out that they live around 100,000 ethnic Albanians in New York City. Then we have only figured out ethnic Albanians and not Arbereshe and Arvantiars. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.69.0.96 ( talk) 10:38, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
I removed the list of notable Albanian Americans and pointed to the other article. We should expand this article rather than having it as a list article and writing the list of notable Albanian Americans twice in two different articles. This is consistent with other similar articles such as the one on Italian Americans, which are very good articles. Hope no one will object.-- Sulmues Let's talk 20:05, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Albanian American's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Wikipedia is spammed by Gjeke Marinaj, self-acclaimed academic and "founder" of some bizarre literary alignment that he calls "protonism". Gjeke Marinaj is at best a modest hobby-poet, therefore he should definately not be in the list of most brilliant and famous Albanians. When was Gjeke Marinaj added with photo in the article ? This applies also to the article Albanians, he has added himself with photo. Look at the article List of Albanian American article, Gjeke Marinaj has spammed himself to the first spot on that list. Therefore James Belushi should be in the list and not Gjeke Marinaj. Or some other famous Albanian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.17.252.233 ( talk) 20:01, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
Johnspring and 37.17.252.233 stop it both of you. Your constant reversions aren't going to help any readers interesting in this article. Johnspring, see WP:OWN. Comments such as If you think our team is going to let you continue like this you better think again, is clearly presenting ownership behavior, and is leading to disruptive behavior such as edit wars. Soviet King Who, me? 04:48, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
Well said Soviet King, Gjeke Marinaj shouldn't definately be listed with photo on infobox on Albanians article, neither should he be listed under notable Albanians, definately not by removing someone who really deserves to be there like James Belushi or John Belushi.Johnspring seems to be Gjeke Marinaj himself. 37.17.250.28 ( talk) 10:23, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
I am not surprised by the comments of the above anonymous users, because Marinaj’s works can be very upsetting, especially if you have a communist background, but I am very surprised that the Albanian administrators allow such nonsense to stay here.

I agree with usurer Tiranaere and with everyone quoted including the Dallas Morning News. Isn’t the infobox supposed to be about the notable people who have or are making a difference in the world? Like it or not, Gjek Marinaj is a most important Albanian-American public figure of our time. I would like to see him back in the infobox.

The editor working from the dynamic IP range 92.22X has earlier tried to introduce European Americans as a related ethnic group to Albanian Americans. This time it is Non-Hispanic Whites and White Americans. Perhaps this editor is confusing "related to" with "being part of". These groups are completely incommensurable. Stretching this a bit further, you could just as well say that all humans are related to Albanians. You would, of course, be right, but it would not be very illuminating. The relationship between Albanian Americans and German Americans or Irish Americans is not any closer than between Albanians and any ethnic group in Europe. Note also that other articles on Albanians in Australia, Germany etc. does only mention Albanians and in some cases Albanian diaspora. Please stop the nonsense! Regards!
