Has no sources and is a new page. Not only that, its a stub and therefore should be deleted. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 22:13, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Nominator did not follow WP:BEFORE. See es:Sancho_de_Londoño, which is sourced to a 72 page historical monograph on the subject, and web sources like [1]. We don't delete articles because they are new or stubs. Jfire (talk) 22:24, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

- Speedy keep The nomination advances no valid deletion rationale. First, notability depends on whether sources exist, not whether they happen to be included in the article currently. Second, being a new page just means that the page is new. If being a new page were valid grounds for deletion, we'd never get anywhere, would we? Third, likewise, being a stub just means that it's a stub. Finally, very trivial checks (the Spanish-language version, Google Scholar) find what appear to be plenty of viable sources; in such cases, the burden is on the nominator to show why those sources aren't usable.

- Keep. Viable stub and disappointing that the editor didn't expand it. Also, January 2015 is "new" now? --Andreas Philopater (talk) 08:15, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Subject appears to pass WP:NBIO through Spanish-language sources. --Richard Yin (talk) 20:01, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- Speedy keep Nominator does not articulate any valid reasons for deletion (relevant ATAs: WP:ITSUNREFERENCED, WP:IMPATIENT, WP:TOOLITTLE) and deserves a trout for failing WP:BEFORE. Any problems are surmountable as well-demonstrated above. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:46, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep - as rule now, before nominating an article please search Google news and books as well as clicking on other languages' articles. I just created my 200th article, which technically is still a stub, but there's many more than two sources available. Almost everything here is a work in progress.
