[edit] Silvio ribas

Alright, here's the deal with this one: It was on Pages needing translation to English, in Portuguese. I did not think the subject matter was notable enough after reading it and checking the claims, so I prodded the article. A fly-by editor removed the prod, and later while I was waiting the two weeks for it to go on AfD, another user did a rough translation of it.

I admire the work that was done by a couple of editors in translating it, but this does not appear to be notable enough. He published one book about Batman and I could not verify any of the journalism awards it says he's won. Thusly, unfortunately, I'm gonna have to say delete. Grandmasterka 19:00, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, per nom. --Joey Roe 21:02, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep if someone can verify the information in the article. I noticed that there is no corresponding article in the Portuguese Wikipedia (nor has there been a VFD there). Schoen 01:39, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom, failure to meet WP:V merits immediate removal. Sandstein 09:19, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. The Dictionary of the Bat [1] looks like an important work in Batman scholarship and I think merits inclusion here. -- JJay 13:53, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
