Contested deletion
editThis page should not be speedily deleted - regardless of the status of the user that created it - as the page covers a subject worthy of an article on Wikipedia. I am happy to take charge in building out sources and references for the page, but it shouldn't be deleted. --Cristiano Tomás (talk) 16:26, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- If you're willing to look after the article, then I see no reason why the G5 tag shouldn't be removed. However, (or somebody else) will need to check for copyright violations & unattributed copying in light of Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Vvven. 16:31, 15 May 2024 (UTC) GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 16:31, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Totally in agreement. And whatever violations are found, I am happy to rework the content according to Wikipedia standards. Cristiano Tomás (talk) 18:40, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Good news! It was just a poorly attributed copy of the esWiki page, as professed in the translation template.(Vvven didn't always use them correctly, and was known to insert copyrighted material alongside an unattributed translation if they felt the esWiki article wasn't good enough). I've repaired the attribution, but further rewriting should not be needed. At least, not for copyright infringement. I haven't checked the accuracy of their machine translation.

- Oh that is good news! I happen to be bilingual in English/Spanish, I have no problem combing over the en.wiki and the es.wiki articles for possible inconsistencies. Thank you for the update! Best, Cristiano Tomás (talk) 14:33, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
