 * Keep and seek assistance for improving. Sad that some links have died, but one might suppose they were good once, and their becoming dead does not negate notability. We might certainly hope that Spanish-reading Wikipedians can dig through the sources found in Google News, separate out the false positives, and tell us if WP:GNG is met, as it appers to be... specially as it does appear that we do have still-LIVE links speaking about the Cuban in enough detail, and it does seem he is a two-time Emmy nominee. Such persons usually have coverage enough to meet notability. Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 07:02, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep The winner of a two regional Emmy's meets WP:ANYBIO. While not Primetime Emmy's, they are still easily a very prestigious award. Mkdw talk 02:24, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep After going through the Spanish sources I can tell that the subject amply meets WP:GNG, in a very tabloid-ish way of sorts unique to the Hispanic world. Generally, telenovela actors tend to be universally notable, the same way an actor in a major network sitcom also is. Even if they strictly fail WP:ACTOR. § FreeRangeFrog croak 22:16, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. The given sources, even if they are not in English, do support the actor's notability. The article is in need of neutralizing and removal of its more essay-ish elements, but it really should be kept. MezzoMezzo (talk) 07:05, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
