 * comment @Gachago can you clarify your deletion rationale? I've added a citation to a dictionary/encyclopedia of the Celts. I find it hard to put in a vote without seeing the offline sources but this is no hoax. Oblivy (talk) 13:54, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Oblivy This needs the attention of an expert. I am sure when user translated the article, probably form spanish, they gave it a title of thgeir own creation because I never came across "Avarigines" and I couldn't find anything in the literature or via search engines.

 * Thanks for your response. Given that there is now an English source using that term can you sustain your position that it’s a “title of [editor’s] own creation?” If that’s your objection, then I think this is speedy keep for lack of valid deletion rationale.

 * Speedy keep, if borne out by the sources cited: however little we know of ancient tribes, they are inherently notable. I've done some cleanup left from the translation, for grammar, spelling, and flow, and worked on the cited sources, moving long-form citations to the bibliography.  Will try to check Pomponius Mela, since he's the ultimate source, and if the citation to him is correct, then it's probably fair to assume the other citations are good—I couldn't check the last one at all, though it looks like it might be the most useful of the secondary souruces.

 * Pomponius Mela does mention them as described, and I've linked the citation to an edition that notes the substitution of "Autrigones" for "Avariginos". So yes, speedy keep.  P Aculeius (talk) 13:19, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep - people(s) mentioned in ancient texts are almost always notable. Bearian (talk) 14:26, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
