José Treviño Morales

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Trevino was just arrested on June 12 for being a money launderer of a Mexican drug cartel. Wikipedia is not a newspaper per WP:NOTNEWSPAPER. As Trevino wasn't a "renowned national or international figure", he also fails WP:CRIME. Trevino has a brother, Miguel Treviño Morales, who is a drug trafficker. Prod was contested with "This is a breaking story covered by international media, national media and local media in two countries. There is enough information from various sources that it should be easy for Wikipedias editors to compile it and have a José Treviño Morales piece alongside and separate from his brothers Miguel and Omar."

 * Comment. The news coverage about this subject certainly doesn't appear to be "routine", so I'm leaning towards a redirect or even a "wait and see" at this time. It's been asserted that he is second-in-command of Los Zetas, which I think would warrant a redirect. I don't think he is a notable horse owner, but he has one that won All American Futurity.

 * Keep per WP:GNG. Given the subject's separate links to the drug cartel and horse racing, I would be OK with leaving the title as is. Kudos to ComputerJA for adding reliable sources. Location (talk) 13:49, 19 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep. The article is in pretty good shape now. There's a lot more info left that needs to be included, but it's fine now. ComputerJA (talk) 02:43, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - easily passes notability guidelines. However, I take the WP:PERP point here, and the article should probably be renamed and rewritten to focus on the event (the raid) rather than the person. Robofish (talk) 12:20, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
