Comment: Disagree with claim that sources are . I can't check sources in Romanian language.  But his book production, his positions in the International Association of Theatre Critics (IATC) and what I interpret as significant involvement in international events abroad make him a quite likely pass for  in Romania.  Keep rationale partly leans on . Article could be somewhat pruned with more arms-length coverage. Have no interest in the article myself

Comment: As stated above, the entire article presents Octavian Saiu's broad activity as the most important Romanian theatre critic and scholar of his generation. His published works are an essential source of information for students and professionals alike, as they offer a clear and comprehensive perspective of the global theatrical scene.

Being president of a local branch of an international organization is not really what PROF means with "highest elected position". Nor am I convinced that the awards listed are notable and that they are important enough to confer notability according to PROF. The article also suffers from some promotionalism and if it is kept then the list of publications should be shortened severely, WP is not ResearchGate or LinkedIn

Comment: Saiu passes the  in my opinion based on the cited references. On a side note, the IATC (a branch on UNESCO) is the main professional organization of theater critics in the world, and is the parent organization of pretty much all major theater critics organizations internationally, including the American Theatre Critics Association
