 * Comment I don't carry any brief for people who use sockpuppets, facebook, twitter etc to publicise themselves. However, Nan's list of interviews in magazines seems to be genuine, I checked several of them and all were short magazine articles about him, supporting the claim that he is a notable pop artist in the Spanish-speaking world.

 * Weak keep It's hard to tell but ability to meet wp:notability looks likely. North8000 (talk) 15:04, 30 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment. I agree that the current references suggest enough notability, although I would like to see at least one note from a major outlet. I think the dead link for El Nuevo Herald is |&p_product=EN&p_theme=realcities&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&s_site=miami&s_trackval=EN&s_search_type=keyword&s_dispstring=ariel%20nan%20AND%20date%282011%29&p_field_date-0=YMD_date&p_params_date-0=date:B,E&p_text_date-0=2011&p_field_advanced-0=&p_text_advanced-0=%28ariel%20nan%29&xcal_numdocs=20&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&xcal_useweights=no&s_trackval=GooglePM this article, but it's behind a paywall. I'm leaning for keep so far, but I cannot access many sites right now so I'll check back tonight. As for the content, it is a direct translation from the subject's website — Frankie (talk) 15:13, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Ariel Nan (nicknamed 'El Brad Pitt Latino':)) is in my opinion a notable celebrity in Argentina/Latino world. His activities are noted by important media, see an interview at the website of Univision Radio, El Diario Argentino, Fama or some of the sources linked in our article. It is in my opinion enough to compile a decent article. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 16:01, 30 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Weak keep. I wasn't able to find anything else that was usable, only this blog post. Still, the current sources do constitute significant coverage, Semanario Argentino is certainly reliable and independent for our purposes, and it appears to be the same for Recorriendo America News, Latino Espectacular, and HIT Magazine — Frankie (talk) 01:15, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
