The result was redirect to List of Tainos. There doesn't appear to be any notability shown, but redirects are cheap, so ... Black Kite (talk) 11:30, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A local village chief, mentioned once in an old book. No indication that he was or is in any way notable, it's not the kind of notable ancient person where other writings about him have been lost, but simply someone of very limited interest.

at best ~~Very Weak Keep~~ -- The chances are that he is mentioned in one primary source and that noone knows anything else about him. I am thus dubious about keeping the article, and would prefer it if it could be merged somewhere, but Where? Peterkingiron (talk) 11:18, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(changed vote) Delete -- as no one has taken the trouble to support its retention, I see deletion as the only alternative. I would nevertheless have preferred to redirect somewhere Peterkingiron (talk) 19:05, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment -- List of Taínos would be a possible redirect target - it already has an entry for Huarea, with about half the information given here. However, I am not quite clear whether the list is supposed to include non-notable entries. PWilkinson (talk) 21:29, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Included in very famous book. DGG ( talk ) 18:26, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- @DGG: "Mentioned", you mean. We routinely delete things mentioned in very famous books, or redirect them to the book if the book article mentions the subject. We don't keep things just because they are mentioned in very famous books. But the question is of course, which very famous book? That by the very famous writer Diego Mendez de Segura? Not really a topic of interest[1]. Or do you mean the source given at the bottom, [2]? Not a very significant book either. So please, DGG, which very famous book would that be?
