 * Keep the eswiki article is long and references many reliable news articles (for example, , ). Most of the content in the eswiki article was written years before his death and relates to his shady business dealings. buidhe 14:44, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Strong keep. Paco el Pocero is a very notable constructor in Spain. Note that his death cause is the least notable about him. He passed WP:GNG way before this. Just some samples of reliable sources and WP:SUSTAINED coverage:
 * El País: dozens of articles spanning from 2006 to 2018, without counting the one about his death in 2020.
 * El Mundo': 2006 (, quite in-depth)
 * ABC: 2006 and probably much more if you dive into their digitized archives.
 * Cadena SER:
 * Full book: El Pocero de Seseña (2007)
 * Book passages: El fango: Cuarenta años de corrupción en España (2015)

 * Keep - Keep given the obvious length and breath of the Spanish-language news sources, as well as his involvement in major projects in Spain and Equatorial Guinea. The Spanish-language wiki page Francisco Hernando Contreras is very thorough. The English-language Wikipedia bio should be expanded, not deleted, using the information and sources already provided in the Spanish wiki bio.Scanlan (talk) 01:04, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep The article may be poor, but that is not the purpose of AfD. Another case of WP:BEFORE; the nominator could easily have discovered the article on our Spanish sister site. Edwardx (talk) 09:39, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - this subject was responsible for Spain's biggest housing bubble in modern times, and was notable as a major developer ("constructor") well before his (karmic) death. (If this is a memorial, I hate to think what my user page will look like when I'm going to the wiki in the sky.) Lack of any work before nominating this article is plainly obvious to objective eyeballs. If you need help translating Spanish Wikipedia sources, get some help - we're here for you.
