No evidence of notability. Claims for a hit single are unsubstantiated. Sources provided are neither reliable nor independent. Strong suggestion of creation by a COI SPA. Fails WP:GNG Velella ^{Velella Talk} 21:49, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I understand that this article has been flagged for deletion. I am curious as to why this would be the case. Touchanddigital (talk) 03:10, 25 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: articles like this from Todo Noticias or this from Telemetro (starting "The famous Panamanian reggae singer Gaby, best known for his iconic theme "El Meneaito"), or this in El Siglo (Panama), indicate that he is indeed notable in Panama (and beyond, e.g. Ecuador as well). Spanish-language newspaper sources from 30 years ago will be hard to find, but that he still gets this kind of attention now shows enduring notability. Fram (talk) 08:06, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
