Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Spain

Shortcuts

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Spain. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Spain|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Spain. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Europe.

Contested prod; page unreferenced since creation in 2008, none of the sources present in the Spanish and Galician articles serve to establish notability, article matter does not meet WP:GNG being a defunct short-lived free newspaper. Coeusin (talk) 00:07, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. As per newspaper and It Didn't show general notability guidelines and significant coverage about the topic and unsourced as well. Fade258 (talk) 01:33, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Spain-Portugal comet fragment

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

PROD was somewhat awkwardly removed by a pair of IPs - one removed my Prod2 while leaving the original prod, then another removed the original prod by Toadspike calling it a "duplicate". But it's still at least technically a contested prod, so here we are: this appears to be LLM-generated, and does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:NASTRO. it was a WP:RUNOFTHEMILL event - a bolide. Bolides happen regularly. There is nothing outstanding about this event, and no lasting coverage. The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:20, 9 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, non-notable event, article probably written by LLM. Toadspike [Talk] 18:34, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. A very typical event that doesn't merit a page. Tepkunset (talk) 19:11, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There are references that demonstrate notability from reliable sources. Anyway, are you going to also try to remove every other similar article? Or just this one? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.103.137.19 (talk) 05:50, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- (1) Is there lasting coverage or just a spurt of "this happened" reports? (2) WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 21:29, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Even ignoring the poor-quality LLM-generated content, this event is not a notable impact event. Ark Hyena (they/any) 01:25, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
DELETE per nom. The article is clearly LLM/AI-generated and I agree this is not a notable impact event - KyloRen2017 (talk) 02:30, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. The existing sources appear to have a decent bit of speculation and not much actual information, it's not notable. Ardenau4 (talk) 05:16, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per the above. Also, what are those "similar articles" mentioned above? Renerpho (talk) 13:57, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable player, fails WP:SPORTCRIT and WP:GNG/WP:ANYBIO. Only primary and non independent sourcing. Was previously deleted by PROD and was undeleted without reason by an editor seeking to maintain an "undeletion streak" (see [1] ). Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:24, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Football, and Spain. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:24, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Refs fail WP:SIRS so fails WP:GNG. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:54, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found which show significant coverage please ping me. Giant Snowman 11:19, 9 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete—As before it was reborn, this clearly fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:GNG. Anwegmann (talk) 21:41, 9 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Manuel Asur

Language problems may be why I can’t identify sources, but I’ve never before seen an article with entries in multiple language Wikipedias none of which are sourced, and I also note a number of self-published books. Doug Weller talk 18:10, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The article should definitely not have been created directly in mainspace in this condition; it's completely unsourced, and I can't find any third-party sources on Google either. Needs to be either deleted or moved to draft where the creator can work on it. Bishonen | tålk 21:16, 28 May 2025 (UTC).[reply]

IIRC there is at least one institute for the preservation or recovery of the Asturian language. It may be worth looking there for support. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 11:57, 29 May 2025 (UTC).[reply]
: Academy of the Asturian Language, Asur is a member. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 13:03, 29 May 2025 (UTC).[reply]
Keep I have found and added some sources, dating from 1986 to 2025 - easy to find by searching Google Scholar or Google Books. I do not read Spanish (or Asturian), so would need to copy and paste more into Google Translate in order to add more info and refs to the article - but there is certainly scholarly writing about his writing, so he meets WP:AUTHOR. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:30, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good to me. Keep All the best: Rich Farmbrough 08:21, 3 June 2025 (UTC).[reply]

Marbella International Film Festival

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non notable film festival. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Google.es news search for "Festival Internacional de Cine de Marbella" found multiple hits but they are of the press release type from individual actors/films saying look what I won or look our film is playing instead of being coverage of the festival itself. (Note, my Spanish is lacking so there was a large reliance on machine translation.) That or straight press release, eg the 20minutos source added by A .B. [2]. duffbeerforme (talk) 08:05, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Arts, Events, and Spain. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 10:48, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
