Antiguo Autómata Mexicano

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article is obviously autopromotion, the musician doesn't fill the requirements to be considered relevant -A7.- the references of his work are magazines not even known at Mexico, such as Pitchfork Magazine or Urb Online, and when you google this unknown musician the only mexican magazine that mentions him is Afterpop Magazine, an amateur unknown publication not even published physically at Mexico, besides I found at Facebook the Afterpop "Magazine" editor is a close friend of the musician, he had never apeared in radio or tv, and the links found at the web about him are not serious (such as Myspace.com, facebook, or his own account in youtube), if there's not other really relevant mexican musicians listed here I don't see any reason to list such autopromotion within Wikipedia, besides he's not even mentioned at Wikipedia-Mexico Postculture (talk) 16:19, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't understand your complaint. Pitchfork Media is a very well-known and respected US music website and a reliable source for proving notability. Are you saying that non-Mexican sources can't be used to prove the notability of Mexican artists, because that is totally false. And what is this Wikipedia-Mexico? Do you mean Spanish Wikipedia? Whether or not someone has a page on another language's Wikipedia has no relevance to their notability on English Wikipedia. --Colapeninsula (talk) 18:05, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep. I don't follow all of the nom's logic either (per Colapeninsula), but I can see some online in-depth coverage. The reviews included in the article already, from Pitchfork Media and URB (magazine), kinda show that WP:MUSICBIO is met, but some further examples of coverage would of course help to establish notability.

 * Keep There is enough to establish notability there (Pitchfork media? Really?) and I'm seeing substantial coverage in google.mx as well, although I'm not entirely sure which of those are WP:RS. § FreeRangeFrog 02:42, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per above - please note the very first thing this user did was nominate this page for AfD. Read from that what you will. The article needs improving and expanding, but certainly not deletion. Lukeno94 (talk) 10:29, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
