 * Keep. Here are two newspaper articles about homeless dogs in Puerto Rico. Both articles use the term "satos". I think that these articles are enough to prove notability. From the Hartford Courant and from The New York Times -- Eastmain (talk) 05:35, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Another reference from MS-NBC:   As that article says, "sato" is a word for "mutt" - which is more slang than the other?  Besides, if you walk around in Puerto Rico they seem notable enough.  Like the dogs, the article needs to be neutered rather than euthanised for best effect. Wnt (talk) 08:05, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * It's not an article just about the word 'Sato', it's about the topic of these stray dogs in Puerto Rico. It could be a merge candidate for Free-ranging urban dog. Fences  &amp;  Windows  21:51, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
