Alta Ventures Mexico

Lacks "significant coverage in independent reliable sources" WP:GNG, WP:CORP - same reason as PROD; contested  Chzz  ► 21:25, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

Not sure why the five sources that include the U.S. State department and WallStreet Journal are not considered reliable and independent. This discussion should be ended and the article re-added to Wikipedia

Keep Looks established as wp:notable. Not sure why it was nominated. North8000 (talk) 19:29, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Based on lack of coverage - check the refs. The WSJ is a blog entry, not an article.
 * Another is the website of the company.
 * Another looks like a self-created publicity piece (LAVCA, a not-for-profit membership organization dedicated to supporting the growth of the private equity and venture capital industry.
 * I listened to the 8-minute radio broadcast cited, and found it had about a 20-second mention of this org (around 04:45 in the clip).
 * The others are very much passing-mentions in articles that are not actually about this organization.  Chzz  ► 12:04, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. I disagree that the WSJ item wouldn't be valid because of it being a blog (please correct me if I'm wrong, but there's nothing on the website to suggest that such content is not backed up by the WSJ as their own), but other than that I could only find this one about the ACE final (this exact article is also available from other sources, but I think it originates from Milenio), and this press release from the Inter-American Development Bank, later reported here . The rest are just passing mentions from conferences and events that the founders have participated in - frankie (talk) 16:32, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment I found, but that's the only reliable source I could find. Doubt if this article gets past start status. Sp33dyphil  "Ad astra" 08:53, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete – insufficient evidence of notability; briefest of news mention and stuff not about them. Dicklyon (talk) 01:38, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
