This article was already deleted once after an AFD. It was then recreated just a month later. Since it was almost a year ago, I don't want to use G4, but I propose an AFD discussion on the topic. The concern is the same: the notability of the subject. The article does not cite reliable independent sources with significant coverage.Sited sources are either written by the subject, or just mention him in passing.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Comment: The AfD decision to delete in February 2014 is close to the commencement of this article in March 2014. It could be worthwhile if someone can check for similarity, in which case CSD G4 would be suitable? AllyD (talk) 16:49, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete: As the nominator says, the sources are poor - a couple of passing name checks in sources that themselves are weak anyway. Of the awards claimed, only the unreferenced "Exhibit at National museum in 1930s." could be possible evidence of notability, but the nature of the exhibition would need to be clarified and substantiated (for example one piece in a group show would fall far short). A search on Highbeam, which has coverage of Philippines media, turns up nothing. As it stands, this fails WP:ARTIST and WP:BIO. AllyD (talk) 16:57, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete, subject has received passing mention in multiple reliable sources, however none can be considered as meeting WP:INDEPTH or WP:SIGCOV, therefore the subject clearly is not notable as considered by WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, or WP:ARTIST. Therefore, at this time, I support deletion of this article.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 21:10, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
