Alonso del Portillo-del Junco

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable person related to notable people. Corvus cornix 23:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, again notable and sourced and something fishy about all these AfD on articles I have created. See also my responces to Vinagre Portillo, Alonso R. del Portillo, Alonso J. del Portillo-Tamargo, Alonso del Portillo-Marcano, and Miguel Luis Tamargo-Bautista.Callelinea 03:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - you've been repeatedly advised of our notability guidelines - and you've likewise advised us that you disagree with our guidelines. There's nothing fishy about that.  Rklawton 14:14, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete no notability whatsoever... He founded a company 100 years ago that folded 60 years ago... The fact that he is in a family register does not make him notable.74.242.184.198 04:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: interesting that the only contribution 74.242.184.198 has done is to vote on my six articles up for AfD.. Like I have stated something fishy is going on'''.Callelinea 04:48, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Reply - don't worry. We tend to disregard special purpose accounts.  Rklawton 14:15, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, the founder of a notable company is potentially notable, but I find nothing substantiating the notability of the company in this case. --Dhartung | Talk 10:03, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * That is why I am going to Cuba in August to find more sources. Callelinea 12:57, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * delete, this appears to be part of a vanity series based on personal genealogy rather than notability. Abtract 13:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * delete, does not meet the guidelines for notability. ++Arx Fortis 14:02, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - non-notable. If this guy has a notable descendent, then consider merging with that person's article. Rklawton 14:08, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Agree with Rklawton. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 14:33, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Agree per nomination reasons.--Dali-Llama 16:03, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Soft keep Of the six articles by this author that were nominated for AfD, this is one of only two that I think might be somewhat noteworthy enough to keep, given that this guy founded the largest company of its kind in Cuba. I admit, though that it's not a strong feeling on my part, compared to say, the Alonso R. del Portillo article, for which I'm voting strong keep.  The others, I think, should be deleted.

 * He founded the second largest company of its kind in Cuba. Corvus cornix 16:48, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * And the largest in Havana with a population of 2,000,000 persons.
 * And therefore the largest company of every product in every large city in the world should have an article? Corvus cornix 17:29, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * In a country that before the revolution had very few companies that were owned solely by Cubans that prospered and expanded and employed many of its citizens, my answer would be yes.. Remember that if you know history, their were very few Cuban owned companies in Cuba.. Most big companies were owned by Americans and other forgeiners. Remarkable how someone with no knowledge of a topic can be so opinionated about a topic. I am trying to keep an open mind that you are doing good faith comments but the more you write about these topics it seams you are taking a very personal role in your critisms. Perhaps I am wrong and If I am I apoligize, But maybe you should step back and re-read your comments and your interest in these articles deletions.Callelinea 18:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep - This man seems to be worth an article, by my opinion. And it is suitably refernced, so why don't keep this article? Let us just keep up the good fate here, shall we? I don't see any point in removing a fine article by a (as far as I know) rather solid contributor. -The Bold Guy- 13:34, 4 July 2007 (UTC) — -The Bold Guy- (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * The above is this user's first edit to Wikipedia outside his User page. Please explain what makes him worth an article?  He founded the second largest vinegar company in Cuba.  so what?  You haven't explained how he meets WP:BIO.  Corvus cornix 23:42, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - I say keep this article. This person was obviously of some importance in Cuba, as he was an industrialist of some note. If nothing else, we should have some kind of article on Cuban industrialists that could include the info. on this fellow. takethemud 19:25, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Which source says he was an industrialist "of note"? Corvus cornix 20:15, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
 * You really are petty.Callelinea 20:46, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
