 * Keep, sigh He appears notable on a quick google search, I suspect that if he was writing in English there would be no problem.  The problem we have is what to do about articles like this one; on a writer of some notability with no one volunteering to put up a decent article - probably because he writes in a foreign language.Elan26 (talk) 23:53, 21 May 2008 (UTC)Elan26

 * Comment I think the opinion above hits some important and valid points. However, the fact is, someone seldom steps up to rework the article into something that feels right for the encyclopedia. --Stormbay (talk) 02:45, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's not a reason for deletion. An article on a notable topic should be kept.  If it needs improvement, it should be improved, it should be tagged appropriately (or, of course, improved right away if possible).  Wikipedia has no deadline. Klausness (talk) 10:58, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete without prejudice. He is not notable in the English-speaking world, and thus seems to have no reason for an article in the English-speaking Wikipedia. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  00:05, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment WP:N says nothing about notability being restricted to the English-speaking world. We need to avoid systemic bias.  If he's a notable Spanish-language writer, then he's notable. Klausness (talk) 10:58, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Several hits in Google Scholar and Google Books. Appears to be notable. Klausness (talk) 11:01, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
