Ruins of Miraflores

 * – ( 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.

 * Some IPs are editing these articles, and after I posted this AfD one added . The website has a section on unsolved mysteries, mainly UFO related. Dougweller (talk) 21:48, 21 December 2012 (UTC)

The sources are reliable (NEXUSMAGAZINE is worldwide recognized, and the fact that sometimes autors write UFO related articles has nothing to do with archaelogical research); Antika.it is a reliable archaeological site, well respected.Franciscos58
 * Keep: the archaelogical site is very important, and in this article there are no connection with paleo-astronauts theories, but only archaelogical conclusions.
 * Comment "NEXUS is a bi-monthly alternative news magazine covering health breakthroughs, future science and technology, suppressed news, free energy, religious revisionism, conspiracy, the environment, history and ancient mysteries, the mind, UFOs, paranormal and the unexplained." It fails WP:RS as a source for archaeology. The Antikia article is by a fringe writer who believes the Sumerians came to America.. Dougweller (talk) 15:36, 26 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep: Article is properly written and sources are reliable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Archeologo40 (talk • contribs) 20:45, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete: No evidence of notability, all sources are self published -- see WP:SPS. --Guy Macon (talk) 03:22, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
