Mantero

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This seems to be a Neologism/loan word of the Argentine equivalent to Hawker (trade). Like street vendors in many places – there are hundreds of these hanging around Le Trocadéro or Trafalgar Square with their blankets, or hawkers on wheels in China, so that they can make a swift getaway with stock intact when the Bill arrive. Illegals, many of them in other countries are – they simply cannot get jobs without papers. I am not sure there is enough that distinguishes them from other street vendors, and a merger to that article would seem the logical home for this content. I have seen one article about the term written in English, but the article relies exclusively on Spanish-language sources, which would tend to indicate that the term has not "traversed" into the English language.

 * ✅. The page may now be redirected, once the deletion request is closed. Once done, we should add as well the "Mantero redirects here" hatnote, with the links to Villa Mantero and Montero. Cambalachero (talk) 14:39, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
