[edit] Marvin Reyes

I am quite disturbed by this entry because Mr. Reyes, though promising, appears too raw to be included as a luminary or a Wikipedia entry. Otherwise, we will end up including every aspiring writer and every faculty member from every university. A writer should be credited for his/her pioneering contributions to his country and his /her outstanding body of works. Mr. Reyes' career is just beginning. Maybe we should give him a few more years before he can be included here. - 7258 14:04, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment WP:BIO has a clear guideline on authors. Unclear if this author meets it or not. -Jcbarr 18:01, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete seems like a talented young man, but I can't find anything on him the suggest he passes WP:BIO. --Eivind^t@c 22:16, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Comment - Based on "People still alive" Mr. Reyes has not been acknowledged nationally or internationally. "Best in Filipino" is an award given by every public and private primary school and high school in the Philippines. It has no impact nationally. He has not published in mainstream books and anthologies. At this point he does not qualify to be a luminary. If we put him, we will encourage anybody who has been published online or in 2nd or 3rd-tier publications, regardless of quality. - 7258 06:12, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
