The result was delete. I see a rough consensus that the current state of the article is so bad as to warrant TNT. No prejudice to an appropriate recreation from scratch (without machine translation etc.). T. Canens (talk) 00:23, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural nomination as article nominated for deletion under speedy deletion criterion A7 but declined due to some coverage in reliable sources and association with notable person Latino (singer). Nomination only for discussion; I have no thoughts on the notability of this subject. Appable (talk | contributions) 17:24, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete unless someone seriously thinks they can salvage this, rather than just engaging in bureaucracy-for-bureaucracy's-sake editwars about whether CSD, PROD or AFD is the correct deletion method. A chunk of machine-translated gibberish (other than the opening Mirella Alba dos Santos Muniz (born May 20, 1983) is a Brazilian model, reporter and dancer there is literally not a single coherent sentence here), which does no more than demonstrate that the subject exists. ‑ Iridescent 17:40, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Maybe we should have an article in this space but this current version is hopeless and needs WP:TNT. It's clearly been created by an automatic translation utility such as google translate. Anyone can generate thousands of these with a few clicks. I'm currently working my way through 3,583 of these created last summer. Unfortunately, a lot of them are concealed copyvios, created by copying text from a commercial website into the translation utility and then pasting the output into a Wikipedia article. This is of course undetectable as a copyvio by standard tools, which leaves us with the choice between a laborious process of working out what the source text is and whether it's available on a Wikipedia-compliant license, and whether the translation is accurate -- which is effort out of all proportion to the few clicks involved in creating these! -- or just deleting it and giving Wikipedians the opportunity to start again from scratch. I advocate the second alternative.—S Marshall T/C 00:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
