(Bizarrely) contested prod, so over it comes... Could probably be A7'd, let alone prodded, but since I know nothing about the subject bringing it over for a consensus. — iridescent 14:08, 31 December 2007 (UTC) — iridescent 14:08, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Has an IMDB entry with seven appearances and a reasonable presence on Spanish (I presume) web sites. One for the experts but looks like a keep to me - although it obviously needs turning into something more than a one line article. QuiteUnusual (talk) 14:20, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Keep Article admittedly doesn't claim notability, but he appears to be part of the cast of a telenovella that I suppose is notable since in ran on Telemundo for 120 episodes[here], also appeared in a made for tv movie in 2004 [here]. I added these as references, but I'm not knowledgeable about the subject to expand the article. Xymmax (talk) 14:26, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment. What's so bizarre about contesting a prod for a subject which has these hits in a Google news archive search? Phil Bridger (talk) 14:32, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment If that's not a rhetorical question - because the version as prodded & contested had no information, no references & no assertion of notability, and could have been speedied let alone prodded. — iridescent 18:08, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. But in my edit summary when I contested the deletion, before you Afded this with your bizarre comment that the contestion was bizarre, I referred to the Google News archive results. Couldn't you have taken a few seconds to check that out before rushing to AfD? Phil Bridger (talk) 20:39, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - his Telenovela content seems to put him over the notability requirement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Matt91486 (talk • contribs) 16:36, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep per Xymmax. I must concur, the sources and body of work would seem to indicate notability. Some cleanup is necessary, but that's not reason enough to delete. UltraExactZZ Claims ~ Evidence 17:32, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep This article need to be expanded, and sources outside of IMDB should be cited. TGreenburgPR (talk) 19:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
