Madeira Fortress

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is one of five articles created recently -Labyrinth City, Ixiamas Fortress, Ruins of Miraflores, Madeira Fortress, Trinchera Fortress and Petroglyphs of Quiaca- all sourced to or based on Yuri Leveratto and his personal website at [yurileveratto.com/]. I can't find reliable sources to show that it meets WP:GNG. I'm taking them to AfD individually as someone might possibly come up with sources even though I've failed.

 * Delete for now. This sounds like an interim report on archaeological work.  That is a variety of WP:OR.  When the work is published properly, preferably in a peer-reviewed journal, it may be appropriate to reinstate the article.  This also applies to 4 other AFD noms based on the same website.

 * Keep: It is not an interim report, but was intended to make sure different users could get informations on this important arcjaeological site, almost unknown. Sources are reliable: Atoform is a Brazilian official photographic archive that recognized the archaelogical work. There are other reliable sources of Bolivian and Colombian origin..Franciscos58 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Franciscos58 (talk • contribs) 15:33, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
 * CommentAll the sources are to articles written by Yuri Leveratto, who is a fringe author..Dougweller (talk) 15:51, 26 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep: Article is properly written and sources are reliable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Archeologo40 (talk • contribs) 20:44, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

 * CommentI don't see this as a peer reviewed journal, and I do see that the article is by our ex-tourist guide with no archaeological qualifications Yuri Leveratto, what a surprise! Why isn't there a real academic report on this? Why are all the sources to the same person? Dougweller (talk) 17:44, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
