AfD/Kike San Martín (2nd nomination) closed as "delete". I was neither the nominator of the AfD (The Banner) nor its closer (Keeper76) but I was the most verbose contributor to it. For this reason, I hesitate before summarily deleting it, and instead bring it to others' attention here.

The article was recreated as ""Kike" San Martín", but it's pretty similar to the previously deleted article, whose latest version admins can see here. As an example, from the old, deleted version:

San Martín began his career studying marketing and advertising. Working in a fashion boutique, he photographed regular people wearing its clothing out in Argentina's night scene. San Martín's work caught the interest of a regional newspaper. As a result, he developed a section in the Sunday supplement dedicated to capture the spontaneous heart and spirit of Argentinas' nightlife. Since this first job, San Martín's work in Miami in the editorial industry has included a freelance job in the newspaper ''[[El Nuevo Herald]]''.<ref name="misionesonline2">{{cite news | author=''Diario "Misiones Online"''| title=Kike San Martín quiere fotografiar estrella de Hollywood | url=http://www.misionesonline.net/noticias/12/05/2012/kike-san-martin-quiere-fotografiar-estrella-de-hollywood| work=''Misiones Online'', Argentina| date= May 12, 2012| accessdate=Mar 16, 2013}} {{es icon}}</ref>

From the current one:

Uh-huh. (Even "Argentinas" remains plural.)

But hang on, there's a new section, titled "PeTA". Here's what it says (after markup-stripping):

Since 2011 the actress and model Patricia de Leon[12] worked with PETA[13] to reduce support for bullfighting among Hispanic people, and was photographed by Kike San Martín for an anti bullfighting campaign.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20]

Most of the proffered sources are in Spanish. Of course there is nothing wrong with this, but anyway let's just look at the titles that these sources are claimed to have. These include:

One problem I pointed out in the second AfD for this article was that the references within it often had their titles more or less subtly altered to emphasize the importance of the biographee, Kike San Martín. This "new" article shows that the person or group serially (re)creating it has learned nothing. The article also contains much unsourced name-dropping (all the celebs that KSM has photographed, etc), and really doesn't assert much notability (in the non-Wikipedia sense of the word). In view of all of this I suggest deletion and salting of both this article and "Kike" San Martín (currently a redirect). -- Hoary (talk) 02:23, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I just nominated that one for G11. Perhaps this should be considered for some of the others as wll. 'DGG (at NYPL)' (talk) 21:26, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and salt. What is new here does not change his notability, last afd result should be applied here. Reposting is part of a bad faithed gaming of the system.
