[edit] Arambilet

Non-notable, vanity. Unverifiable. Google reveals a total of 0 whopping hits. Delete. Natalinasmpf 9 July 2005 13:56 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Try your google search again[1]. Remember that google is a poor indicator of notability for artists. Pburka 9 July 2005 15:45 (UTC)

• Comment - I tried the whole name - not to mention, that 267 hits aren't too great either. Seem all to be vanity propagations. My username has way more, heck. -- Natalinasmpf 9 July 2005 15:52 (UTC)

• Keep - I think he's a notable as an artist/author... but the first to use ASCII Graphics? Also, most of the articles from google are in spanish, as he's from Santo Domingo... this might be why he has few google hits. In the US, 54% of the population are internet users, however, in Santo Domingo 18% of the population are internet users. (Source: CIA World Factbook) -- BMIComp (talk) 12:04, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete seems half hoax, half vanity. drini ☎ 16:21, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete notability not established, likely nonsense vanity. JamesBurns 07:29, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• keep Look at such pages as http://sololiteratura.com/autrepdominicanaag.htm or http://www.bnrd.gov.do/prosa2/19572.htm. The latter seems to be a govt. library page (sure, this could be a hoax, and so could Grotius), where the man is said to have published, in 1978, the first Dominican Republic story written on perforated cards [ie., the old IBM cards] and the following year his first graphic pomes, using the same procedure. Maybe the article's author meant to write first in his country. In any case, doing this sort of stuff in "78/'79 in a place like the DR sure impresses me. He especially seems worth including considering all the bands, movies, and diddly t.v. personalities Wik includes with-out a worry. Is there as strong tv./movie/video-game bias to Wik? They guy has published a number of works - No hoax: check the LoC catalogue, which lists three. Kdammers 06:57, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
