Aixa de la Cruz

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There is one source, which is never enough to pass the general notability guidelines that require multiple, reliable 3rd party secondary sources. My Spanish is not strong enough to be sure, but it looks to me like the one source might not qualify as indepdent of the subject. Even if it does, it does not pass notability. Having works nominated for a prize is generally not enough to suggest notability, generally the prize has to be won, and I can not tell if the prize mentioned would even help with notability if won.

 * Keep. Cruz is absolutely notable. She and/or her work has been covered in a number of Spanish language publications including Eñe Magazine and El País, the largest daily newspaper in Spain. The prize she was twice a finalist for, the Premio Euskadi de Literatura, is a very important literary prize. (It should also be noted that for larger prizes in a creative field merely being a finalist is indicative of notability -- there is no rule that you must win the prize to suddenly become notable.) Cruz has also won other notable prizes. As a final note, I've updated the article with a number of new citations and new information.--SouthernNights (talk) 00:07, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
