I've cleaned up this article by removing a number of blank lines and other missing information, but it is written without any references whatsoever. Vertium (talk) 15:25, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep OK, the current article is just as dire as the nominator says, but in most circumstances (and, unless someone can produce evidence suggesting a copyright violation, I'm fairly sure this is not an exception), what is supposed to count here is the notability of the topic, not the current state of the article. And there are literally thousands of GNews hits, mostly in Spanish or Portuguese (either of which I struggle to read) but many of them seem substantial and are from reputable newspapers from a variety of different countries. Notability, I think, is very unlikely to be in doubt. PWilkinson (talk) 22:09, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep and improve – The topic passes WP:GNG. Some sources:
 * Also, per WP:NRVE, topic notability is about the availability of significant coverage in reliable sources, and not based upon upon whether or not sources are present in articles. Northamerica1000(talk) 01:48, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep  Thanks for finding and adding the references. As I don't speak Spanish or Portuguese, it was difficult for me to cite with any degree of confidence.  Thanks for the update!   Vertium   (talk to me)  02:42, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. As for notability, there are many sources available online in addition to the above. As a sample, some from Argentina  , and from Spain . Note that there is also Worldwide tournament of tango dance covering the same subject, so one of them should be merged/redirected. I'd be glad to add verification for each edition's winners (not so sure about the rest of the finalists, though), but I'm not sure which title is preferable. The official name seems to be Campeonato Mundial de Baile de Tango, and it is only casually referred to as Mundial de tango, so the title Worldwide tournament of tango dance is more accurate — Frankie (talk) 20:38, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
