It generally fails to meet WP:GNG as WP:BASIC, failing to receive significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. In particular: It should also be noted that the article was created in September 2016 (this is, almost 4 years before the single event she is mostly referred to in current sources) in what seemed a work of promotion or even self-promotion of this individual (considering that the original author is a SPA whose only contributions to Wikipedia have been to this article and the one of her party). Most of the sources added at first were gradually removed throughout the years either as primary or not significant ones, while the original content was deleted for the most part due to it being irrelevant and poorly referenced, leaving the article in its current state.

 * (1) The article currently shows her as "presidential candidate" in the 2016 and 2019 Spanish general elections (note that such figure of "presidential candidate" does not currently exist in Spain in the English-meaning of the term, since the country is a monarchy). While in those elections she ran as her party's candidate for national deputy, she failed to get elected (securing about 20-40 votes out of an electorate of over 100,000 in the constituency for which she sought election, or about 0.05% of the votes that were validly cast, a result that is not even close to be relevant or notable), thus failing to pass notability for this condition alone as per WP:POLOUTCOMES: Candidates who are running or unsuccessfully ran for a national legislature or other national office are not viewed as having inherent notability and are often deleted or merged into lists of campaign hopefuls.
 * (2) The other event for which she is listed as notable is one in January 2020 where she was "arrested and accused of fraud and impersonation of a public official". Factually, a search of her name in Google mostly gives results for this specific, single event. As per WP:BLP1E/WP:BIO1E, We generally should avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met: 1. If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event. 2. If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual. [...] 3. If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented [...]. The event itself she is credited for is not even close to be significant enough to merit a stand-alone article, let alone justify an article for her.

 * Delete the article is mainly inaccuate and makes claims that are just plain false, thus it is somewhere between a hoax and an article written by someone who did not at all understand the source material they were using. Either way nothing about her arrest adds up to actual notability nor do any other sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:50, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails BLP1E and WP:POLITICIAN. The nom's extensive analysis is entirely persuasive.   Ravenswing      10:42, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
