 * Delete per nom. This is the English Wikipedia. Roy  boy cr ash  fan  [[Image:Flag_of_Texas.svg|30px]] 06:15, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep We absolutely keep articles in English about topics that are primarily notable in other cultures. Notable journalist, for notable publications, including Cambio 16, and let's not give in to linguistic systemic bias . — Adrian~enwiki (talk) 07:07, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep per Adrian Lamo. -- S iva1979 Talk to me  10:01, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is the international English language Wikipedia, not English-centric. A very important difference. Grandmasterka 10:25, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 'Keep per Adrian Lamo and Grandmasterka. Schizombie 11:06, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep claims to notability require further verification (e.g. authorship of book appears established, extent of readership and best-selling status need more info). Schizombie 22:23, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:BIO. To quote from the notability criteria: "Published authors, editors, and photographers who have written books with an audience of 5,000 or more or in periodicals with a circulation of 5,000 or more."  The subject of the article clearly meets this standard. NoIdeaNick 11:36, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - like it all made sense until I Googled FAEC and found it was Argentinian Foundation for a Scientific Ecology. Is this some sort of crackpot science?  How much books did he sell anyway??  How big is Cambio 16???  Defunkier 13:17, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Hes not even on Spanish wiki - you just get what looks like a create article box. Defunkier 13:20, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Whether he's on the Spanish or the English or the Klingon wiki is irrelevant. He's here, and I'm pretty sure he's notable. The Spanish wiki is rather underdeveloped (a tenth of our size) and lacks articles even for important Spanish-oriented subjects. Grandmasterka 13:44, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Maybe he is notable. But nobody is saying how many books he sold are they.  Hes not on Amazon.  Cambio 16 is a weekly mag that kept in some libraries - I suppose it has 5K copies but as far as I can see hes only been interviewed by them - has anyone seen an article he wrote for them. Defunkier 16:49, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * the publisher and title get 17 Googles. That cant have sold well. Defunkier 17:40, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep per Adrian, Grandmasterka. Cambio 16 is well-known and well-established magazine often held in US research libraries, for those to indolent to Google . Monicasdude 15:04, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * thats too for those to indolent to spell Defunkier 16:49, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Leaving an "o" off of "too" could also be a typo, like failing to capitalize the first word in a sentence, leaving out an apostrophe from a contraction, or failing to end a sentence with punctuation such as a period. Here's another mizztake so you can pick on me too. Schizombie 22:23, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment hey he started it and hes bigger than me anyway. An I can rite real good when I needs :-). Incidentally, thanks for adding the citation request into the article, it's good to see someone taking the very real verifiability issue seriously. Defunkier 13:13, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
 * keep please the person is notable Yuckfoo 00:11, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
