Fails WP:NSONG & WP:MUSICBIO MJH (talk) 01:29, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Note for an Admin: WP:WITHDRAWN as references are being added to support notability. Thanks all!---MJH (talk) 22:01, 15 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Dear MJH, dear Staff, I know my article is not complete. In fact, it is difficult to find accurate information on the singer. I have nevertheless added a lot of information to it. It is difficult because he was popular more than 50 years ago and that he comes from a very poor country (Bolivia) where the people did not have a good access to many communication/information facilities. It means that there are not many prints and marks left of the singer. Anyway as you can see if you look at the references I put, he has created this sucu sucu song (for which I created the article by the way) which has been sampled in many different versions around the world by famous singers and bands even in a tv series (Top Secret). I think that this artist really should be represented on Wikipedia. I think the article fulfill the WP:NSONG now and that all the references fulfill the point 2,5,11,12 of the WP:MUSICBIO. I wish to improve the coverage of the andean music of that time in Bolivia. There are not many artists of that time that have a lot of sources, especially on the internet.. I hope you will consider this injustice compared to singers or groups of western countries and that the criteria of quality should be different. Sorry for the quality of my English and thank you for reading. Best regards Robbru (talk) 03:34, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - A withdrawal by the nominator might be in order here as a courtesy. Bring it back in a couple months if it still offends thee... Carrite (talk) 04:07, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have added 2 categories and more than 2000 characters today. I have discovered many prizes he has received in Bolivia and Argentina. I think the article is complete enough to deserve to stay on the english wikipedia website. Please let me know if you agree. I am going to add more information on the article progressively. Thank you for helping me improving my articles. I did not understand all what Carrite wrote.. Did you mean that I should ask -MJH to cancel the nomination?
