editIs he the only Puerto Rican to ever receive the MoH? Not much of a case for notability unless he is the only one (or the first)...--Isotope23 19:05, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
Let's see what others had to say about this:
- Keep Perfectly good article Tony the Marine 04:38, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep. This does not meet any of the Deletion Criteria. Guettarda 06:01, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy keep. --Carnildo 06:38, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep - the chap won the medal of honour! A curate's egg 06:47, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. You are just an attention whore. :( Joseph | Talk 06:50, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
- Definite keep How about the thousand other soldiers we have written about and if you ask anyone at the club, the pool, the plane, even try to find them on the news, television, books or movies and it's almost as if they never existed?? Then we would have to delete each of those as well. Antonio Mista Pizza Martin
- Keep and reprimand the nominator: Nominating articles like this one (a well-written article about a person who is notable in his homeland and far more notable than many others with biographies in Wikipedia) trivializes the deletion process. VFD is already bloated and the volunteers manning it are already overworked. Comcat, I hope you will realize that the extra work you are making for the rest of us just isn't funny.

- I've open a Request for Comment on User:ComCat. Please comment at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/ComCat -- Kaszeta 03:23, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Sound article about a notable person. No reason for deletion. --Joelito 11:39, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Do I even need to explain why? Cjrs 79 15:31, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Nope. — RJH 15:34, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Considering the amount of nonsense articles that exist in wikipedia, it is incredible that someone would take the time to ask for the deletion of this article, which contains valuable info.Coburn Pharr 15:46, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep As Coburn_Pharr said, I see no reason for deletion, the article contains valuable info about one of the only four Puerto Ricans to recieve the highest military honor. Miguelfpl 16:26, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Does not meet the criteria necessary for deletion. Hall Monitor 16:33, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. A clear case of a page that doesn't meat any of the VfD criteria. -- Kaszeta 21:06, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, not that the outcome is in doubt at this point. We should have an article on every Medal of Honor recipient, IMHO. Tualha (Talk) 00:05, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep! Are you joking me? Orioneight 03:19, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Notable hero. Must have made a mistake and did not check for notability. No contest to this vote and probably not even needed.--Jondel 08:14, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and delist. Nominator is ill-informed, obviously. —RaD Man (talk) 08:27, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Won the Medal of Honor. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:07, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Good article, bizarre nomination. Seanherman 13:49, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Give me a break. Linuxbeak | Talk | Desk 20:09, August 5, 2005 (UTC)
The people have spoken!
I know, maybe it's not enough to win the Medal of Honor, giving your live so that others may life and to be considered a notable hero in your land, such a small island and yes, I guess that the City of New York has a habit of naming a park and a street after an unnotable person, but what can we do? Somethings are just better left alone. Tony the Marine 02:04, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
