- Delete/Comment He has an article on Fashionmodeldirectory.com. I personally dislike the site and find it unreliable and riddled with errors, but
it is still considered a "reliable source"- although I avoid using it as much as humanly possible. I have done an extensive Google search excluding all the TumblrTwitterFacebookYouTubeBlogspotetcetcetc site keywords but can only find promotional sites or selling sites. He is clearly successful, but there is little actual material out there that can be used as reference. So I will have to reluctantly say delete this due to lack of sources and coverage, although I'm surprised he doesn't have more on him out there. Mabalu (talk) 23:30, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Albertosabino, thank you for coming here to alert us of the statement on the talk page. As it was not posted on this discussion, it could easily have been overlooked. I have looked at the links you listed, and many of them cannot be accepted because they are photographs with a namecheck in the caption - although they do demonstrate that you are successful, we need extensive editorial text about you written by third parties. We cannot accept Facebook or many self-published blogs/sites because these are not considered reliable sources for Wikipedia purposes - we need text that has been written with editorial control. Having said this, these sources would pass as "reliable sources" I feel: 1; 2 needs someone who can read the language but definitely seems to be a reliable source; 3 - being chosen to represent Brazil for a BBC interview at the London Olympics is a nice factoid. I couldn't get this to open in Google Translate, but it looked like a potentially valid RS to me, although if it is a self published blog rather than an online magazine using Blogspot as a host, then it is problematic. The sources do demonstrate that you are very well known in your native Brazil, and that your jewellery is worn quite widely, BUT the problem is that apart from the Google News hit, probably, all your links are a bit borderline notability and/or unable to be accepted as a source. Also, you should not be editing your own article due to conflict of interest. Mabalu (talk) 02:22, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak delete Looks like he could be notable from what's in the bio, most of the sources are dead or unreliable. Googling the name gives little of relevance Ohconfucius ping / poke 02:34, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The 'semanier' link is recent, and seems cute, but I don't know how to read the Alexa listing. The Jornal do Brasil - Sep 29, 1991 article I think would be a prima facie valid source, IMHO. Are there more like it? It seems to be the only one in Google's archives. So, there's still not enough to establish notability, IMHO. -- Ohconfucius ping / poke 02:41, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
