There are multiple assertions of notability in the edit summaries, but after many years no one has been able to add multiple citations to independent reliable sources. I have been unable to find anything myself. Maybe there are Spanish language sources. Kendall-K1 (talk) 03:17, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: There's no indication that Marroquín satisfies WP:BIO, or even WP:PROF. I've tried find sources which might help better establish notability, but have not had any luck at all. I was able to find elcomercio.pe/politica/actualidad/victor-marroquin-congreso-unicameral-parche-noticia-1959203, but it's an interview so it's not really sufficient for establishing notability. I've posted about the article at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Peru, but have not gotten a response. I started a discussion about the article at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard/Archive250, but that thread was archived without anything being resolved. I've also asked about it at User talk:Tokyogirl79/Archive 31 where it was suggested by that the article needed to be sorted out at AfD. Much of the content is being added/removed by IPs who may be trying to portray the subject in a particular light, either negatively of positively. (See this, this, this, and this Teahouse post for examples of these edits/comments). There is also this edit sum here which might not technically be a legal threat but does seem to be moving in that general direction by calling for an (legal) investigtion into the reasons a Template:Notability was added. Anyway, none of this is, of course, a reason to delete, which is why I've continued to look for better sources. I'm just not sure now whether such sources exist at all. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:33, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete none of his positions or awards are such to show notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:56, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete (provisional). I can't see notability at present but could change my mind. Legal threats are a worry. Xxanthippe (talk) 04:33, 26 February 2017 (UTC).
