Non-notable actress. No sources outside of IMDb; utterly fails WP:BIO. Valrith 02:34, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep. Google News Archives comes up with sources in Spanish[1] as well as IMDb. Capitalistroadster 03:44, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep. 703,000 Ghits seems a reasonable amount, and the Spanish hits look promising, for all I have no understanding of Spanish. Needs better referencing; if none is forthcoming, I will change my vote. Callix 12:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment Actually, when the name is put in quotes, the count goes down to only 500. Still, that's not a terrible showing for a 1940s career in Mexico, given the Internet's spotty pre-1995 coverage, which is why I de-prodded a couple of months back. --Groggy Dice T | C 20:49, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep, because actresses are significant and sometimes pretty! :) --Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? 16:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
    Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? (talk · contribs) just opined "strong keep" in 27 AFD discussions over a period of 35 minutes, several times with clearly disruptive rationales. Uncle G 16:52, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:BIO Google hits don't nessacarially equal notability. Rackabello 16:51, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Convinced to keep per Capitalistroadster and Callix. Acalamari 17:34, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, the author is notable, but the article does need to be sourced. Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 17:50, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep I did a search and found a number of articles about or mentioning her. Specifically, eight in the magazines Reforma, two in El Norte(A Venezuelan newspaper), two in Mural, two in Palabra, and in English, Video Store Magazine. Granted, two of those articles are reprints. She's definitely not the most notable person in the world, especially in the English-speaking world, but given that we know she exists and we know that at least five newspapers/magazines considered her notable enough to talk about her fifteen times within the past 10 years, even though she last did a movie in 1951. I say she's notable enough to keep around, even if it might not be immediate apparent why to us monolinguals. Chris Croy 18:53, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - per research by Christ Croy. Being notable in only the Spanish speaking world doesn't make her not-notalbe in general. --Oakshade 23:42, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
