Victoria Escobar
Probably nn writer; Google finds no relevant hits.
 * Delete Nineteen year-old who is not yet notable (and won't be if she's now at the pinical of her career).   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk   05:17, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Pretty entertaining entry, though. Devotchka 05:22, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as per WP:V. While there is an Argentian author by the name of Victoria Escobar see, I doubt that the woman referred to in the article is her. A Google search comes up with little else of interest see  and a search for her as a writer comes up empty. The article cites no actual works that she has written other than claiming she has touched the hearts of "Manny". Manny might be disappointed at the deletion of her article.

 * Oh, come on. Did you guys even consider her sotry-lines?  OK, OK, Delete, but at least I bothered to fix the typos. Might as well have presentable garbage if it's going to be up there for 5 days, huh? --DavidConrad 06:05, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, that's what "sotry" meant. I was thinking it was a misspelling of "sultry". Not that that makes a lot of sense in context, but that hardly refutes the idea, does it? --Trovatore 02:34, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy under A7 for a non-notable bio that makes no claim of notability. Unpublished author, unverifiable, might as well through WP:NOR in the mix as well. No opposition to an actual article on the published author though. Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 06:10, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Um, if "influential novelist", "critically acclaimed", and "has touched the lives of many" are not claims of notability, what the hell would be? This is a delete, but it sure isn't a speedy. &mdash; Haeleth Talk

 * Delete as hoax (based on current content). Influential, critically acclaimed novelists who have touched the lives of many generally have at least one book in print, particularly if they are contemporary (the article says she was born in 1986).  The only Victoria Escobar known to the book department at Amazon.com is the one found by Capitalistroadster, whose only book was published in 1995 (when our Victoria was 9 years old) and is now out of print.  I doubt that the Victoria Escobar who wrote "El sexto hombre" is notable, but this article is not about her and I'm not calling her a hoax. --Metropolitan90 00:13, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
