Le Llano en Flammes

There is no reason stated in this article why the French translation of the Spanish original is notable. -Yupik (talk) 17:09, 4 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Juan Rulfo, author of the original book in Spanish. Notability has not been established for this to warrant its own article.  Linguist At Large  20:06, 4 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Rename to El Llano en Llamas and un "redirect" Spanish name (El llano en llamas as well) from Juan Rolfo. The book is notable and should have its own article, even if it starts as a stub.  Non-English language items are underrepresented in English wikipedia, so I think a little leeway is in order.  Scarykitty (talk) 20:45, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

 * I'm gonna make an edit and move this article as wikignomes are coming by and removing links that are currently circular, but will not be after this sensible move. If the vote or close is to delete, so be it.  Not trying to subvert the process AT ALL.  Scarykitty (talk) 23:55, 5 January 2009 (UTC).

(there are 10 references) and a very well informed Spanish language version El llano en llamas and a request to get help in translating from Spanish into English [] but prefer toUse Spanish language title (El llano en llamas) of the book rather than the French language title of the book. El Llano en Llamas used to redirect to Juan Rulfo [].Then it has been made into a stand alone page []. --Stadt (talk) 19:13, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Never mind couldn't make it happen as El Llano en Llamas redirects to Juan Rulfo. Would be great if someone could close this and we'll get about to seeing if this article can survive.  Note that since this nomination, an editor has added a list of stories contained in the volume along with brief plot synopses of some of the stories - a big improvement!

 * Comment. To be frank, it still doesn't change the reason why this was put up for AfD in the first place. What is notable enough about this particular language's translations of this book that it needs to be translated and put up on this wikipedia? I'd have no problem with this article if it were an article discussing the English translation and the Spanish original, but a French translation? -Yupik (talk) 13:22, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with the nominator insofar as the notability of the French translation of the Spanish book is not established (although one might argue that the fact that the preface for the French transaltion was written by an Nobel Laureate points to a certain notability); I agree with Scarykitty insofar as the book clearly deserves an article. I'll go ahead and make it a stub under El Llano en Llamas. We can redirect after the closure of this AfD. Lectonar (talk) 13:56, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Le Llano en Flammes
 * Rename to Spanish title & Keep. Don't go to the hassle of writing a new article - just go through the requested movers page. Johnbod (talk) 01:45, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge content into El Llano en Llamas and have Le Llano en Flammes as a redirect. Abecedare (talk) 02:58, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I have gone ahead and merged content to El Llano en Llamas. At close of this AFD Le Llano en Flammes should be made into a redirect; it should not be deleted in order to preserve the contribution history as required under GFDL. Abecedare (talk) 03:15, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks to everyone who has helped provide a suitable solution for this article! -Yupik (talk) 10:11, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
