This was up for a CSD, and as an admin, I just wasn't sure if this is really notable enough. So I figure an AfD should determine it better than I can. Not sure exactly how accurate the google test would be considering these events took place 30+ years ago-- malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 04:05, 4 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep According to source, which is a Congressional transcript, he was the head of Castro's airforce. Article could be cleaned up, but notability appears to exist. Yank  sox  04:11, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as Yanksox. The article reads like "Baby's First Book Of Cuban Revolution" though --IslaySolomon 04:12, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Google shows some orignal research and some latin american sites. But I can atleast tell he was a pilot who defected which backs up some of the story. --Pboyd04 04:14, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep Appears to have been mentioned in relation to the Kennedy assassination, occupied important position under Castro, was allegedly a contemporary of Lee Harvey Oswald - not sure really but I lean towards keep if verification can be inserted, and the article made up less about non-verifiable information such as what he wanted to do as a boy.

 * Delete As written, the article seems inappropriate in tone for an encyclopedic article. Take away most of the unverifiable content and we are left with a stub of a man who's only claim to fame is as head of Castro's airforce.  Fails to meet WP:BIO. TheRingess 04:35, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I have cleaned up the article, and made it more of an encylopedic tone. It's not the best, but it is an improvement. Yank  sox  04:37, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Give me a break, I'm 14. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Acsta (talk • contribs).
 * It's not you that's being debated or the quality of the content. It's the notability. Yank  sox  04:49, 4 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Weak delete. It fails WP:BIO but is quite encyclopedic.-- Tdxi an  g  07:05, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Appears notable enough, and maybe someone who's not "just 14" will add something more soon. If not, delete it next time around. HumbleGod 07:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, per cleanup. The article looks much better now. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 07:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep seems fine after the cleanup. Angus McLellan (Talk) 20:45, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep &mdash;Brim 00:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep now that Yank  sox  has tackled it.  Still needs citations, but much better. --Satori Son 07:37, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Yanksox and rewrite. A deflected Cuban airforce commander is notable. I don't see how that fails WP:BIO. Mgm|(talk) 09:58, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
