[edit] Juan el Español

Delete: Google returns a whopping 21 hits, half of which are definitely not a match for this Uncle Sam of Spain. For comparison, "Uncle Sam" returns 1.75 million. This just isn't notable. --Durin 00:54, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Delete/Merge, maybe put him as a Trivia note under Uncle Sam? Master Thief Garrett 05:15, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • but we'd not only need a Spaniard but also one who knows their own pop culture. So really you can't trust a single person. Or was your comment intended to be humourous? If so then I missed the joke, sorry. Master Thief Garrett 09:49, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, I'm inclined to agree on the notability and verifiability issue of this. Megan1967 06:24, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, Mother Germania? Sorry. JHMM13 01:25, Apr 28, 2005 (UTC)
  • This seems to be real. See this rather scholarly article about the German Michel (I'm directing to the cache because the version up now has been oddly abbreviated), where "Juan el Español" is mentioned briefly at the end. I can't seem to find any more information, though.--Pharos 08:19, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
