Nazario Chávez Aliaga

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Offers no indication of notability, no sources, nothing, really. Alex (talk) 05:05, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep A Google books search shows that he wrote several books in Spanish and is discussed in many others. The article about him on Spanish Wikipedia indicates that he played a leading role in the American Popular Revolutionary Alliance, one of Peru's major political parties, and held high government positions on several occasions. He was also a university professor, a newspaper publisher and a published poet. I am confident that a Spanish speaking editor could improve and reference the article quite easily.

 * True that the article asserts these things, but it has no WP:RS that demonstrates them. Agricola44 (talk) 04:13, 13 March 2014 (UTC).

 * Delete. Just publishing books is not enough. We need ample evidence that they have been noted by others. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:07, 10 March 2014 (UTC).
 * Delete. There's no assertion of notability in the article. He has indeed published quite a few books, but WorldCat shows paltry institutional holdings for each one. Agricola44 (talk) 15:50, 12 March 2014 (UTC).
 * Changing position to Keep. I've checked JSTOR and the Taylor article discusses Aliaga at length. Kudos to GreenC. I think editing has also fixed the assertion of notability, so this article is acceptable, in my opinion. Agricola44 (talk) 15:47, 14 March 2014 (UTC).


 * Keep The Spanish Wikipedia article (translated) asserts he was a politician and served in some high offices. True the existing content is a poor stub, but AfD is a topic-level discussion not content-level. There is good evidence this is a notable topic per POLITICIAN and perhaps other things too. -- Green  C  00:48, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
 * The entirety of the sources in the Spanish WP article seems to be a single piece of personal correspondence from Aliaga. Agricola44 (talk) 04:11, 13 March 2014 (UTC).
 * Lewis Taylor writes in "The Origins of APRA in Cajamarca, 1928-1935" (Bulletin of Latin American Research Vol. 19, No. 4, Oct., 2000) that Nazario Chávez Aliaga was "Prominent among the individuals who propounded [revolutionary] ideas .. who in 1930 would appear as the first General Secretary of APRA (American Popular Revolutionary Alliance) in Cajamarca and play a key role in building up the party apparatus.." Further, the newspaper he founded El Peru, "would soon become the most prestigious press organ in the northern sierra, which not only brought status to its owner [Chávez Aliaga], but also invested him with social and political influence." -- Green  C  05:21, 13 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep: Notability seems clear from the Spanish article and be clearest in terms of political office. 1956 Secretario General de la Presidencia de la República. And Green Cardamom seems to me to have it right. I think we need more work not deletion. (Msrasnw (talk) 23:56, 13 March 2014 (UTC)) ::: This article - Taylor, L. (2000). The origins of APRA in Cajamarca, 1928–1935⋆. Bulletin of Latin American Research, 19(4), 437-459. has a subtantial amount on Chávez Aliaga clearly inidcating notability. Have added this ref and another less reliable and a note. Hope it helps (Msrasnw (talk) 08:51, 14 March 2014 (UTC))
 * He might also have a street and a cultural museum named after him http://ofi.mef.gob.pe/appFD/Hoja/VisorDocs.aspx?file_name=10530_OPIMPSPABLO_20121017_1736.pdf and http://www.datosperu.org/tb-normas-legales-oficiales-2004-Septiembre-24-09-2004-pagina-43.php Msrasnw (talk) 12:25, 14 March 2014 (UTC))
