Another page that has hung around on WP:PNT for more than two weeks untranslated. -Yupik (talk) 12:21, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and commend the people who clean up WP:PNT for their efforts. --fvw *  12:28, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment. This person passes WP:POLITICIAN as a member of the Colombian Senate. I don't know the what happened in the Spanish Wikipedia or WP:PNT, but removing the fluff and making a NPOV stub doesn't look like an insurmountable task here. • Gene93k (talk) 17:02, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep: I've just done a short translation. As Gene93k points out, he passes WP:POLITICIAN and we need more of such articles not less to counter WP:BIAS Valenciano (talk) 19:57, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong keep per Valenciano. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 21:42, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. The criterion for this debate was not that he wasn't notable, but that this is the English wikipedia and we can't keep these articles around indefinitely while waiting for them to be translated. The time limit for translation is two weeks at WP:PNT, which is why it was listed here. That said, thank you for the translation and I would be pleased if you would start participating in WP:PNT so we don't have to list these articles here, especially with a common language like Spanish. I highly doubt, for instance, that we'll be able to find anyone to translate the article in Maltese hanging around by the time its two weeks is up. But again, thanks and I think this AfD can be closed now with the result of Keep. -Yupik (talk) 23:44, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I would also like to extend that invitation to anyone willing to go through already translated articles and copyedit them. We have quite a backlog of those, too, but those can't be AfD'd. -Yupik (talk) 23:49, 14 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. I didn't think I should close this yet, despite the withdrawn nomination, as there were some other negative !votes. But it seems a clear pass of WP:POLITICIAN as Gene93k said. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:33, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
