I have now added the interwiki link to the Turkish article, which lists quite some sources. However, these are repeating what the person says himself or are "Kimdir?" sources which do not contribute to notability (see my explanation here as to why). You can't pass GNG with these sources. He also doesn't have significant roles so also fails NACTOR. Delete. ~Styyx^{Talk? ^-^} 18:03, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Probably delete. Rarely does one encounter an article which so clearly announces the non-notability of its subject: "There isn't much known about Emre Basalak, but everything that is known about Emre Basalak's career is..." (that he has played two not very significant roles). My own searches have actually thrown up significantly more evidence of significance than the article suggests, but it has largely been in sources of little value, such as fan sites, IMDb, mere announcements of his playing particular roles, and so on. My impression is that he does not satisfy the notability guidelines, but I'm reluctant to definitely commit to delete because I haven't searched thoroughly enough for possible Turkish sources.
