(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Questionably notable and improvable as the best I found was this and this and I simply see nothing better. Pinging past users Jerzy and Kvng and also interested subject users Michig, Walter Görlitz, Vrac, Crystallizedcarbon and Noyster (como estamos mis tres hermanos Españoles? ).

Comment: music articles aren't really my thing but I'll point out that es:José Padilla (dj) was deleted from eswiki in 2008 for lack of notability; and the French and German articles are badly translated versions of the enwiki article. Vrac (talk) 03:11, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I don't recall how it drew my attention. This 2-edit diff clarifies my lack of topic-specific knowledge.

Oh, yeah, and FWIW note removal of (BTW unsourced) content, probably only bcz of a false notion (that he was the terror-involved JP) seemed to rule out its continuing validity!

Comment Hola Amigo SwisterTwister , I must confess that I also don't have much knowledge on this subject so I don't feel qualified to cast a vote in this case. I found a reliable source from a local newspaper, but personally based on the current state of the article and on what I could find I would lean towards delete as in my view I don't think there is enough in-depth coverage to meet notability requirements, and I don't know if been a resident DJ at a popular club is enough to warrant a Wikipedia article.

Keep Padilla has his own entry at Colin Larkin's Encyclopedia of Popular Music and there is ample coverage of his Café del Mar series of compilations. Neodop (talk) 19:07, 7 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
