The entire article is a near direct copy from primary reference source, a fan site WP:COPYVIO. Article fails to establish any notability as per WP:BIO and WP:ENT. The two references are primary sources. I don't do the speedy delete thing but if someone wants to nominate this one I won't argue. Ad Orientem (talk) 01:37, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

He is the Spanish radio voice of the Houston Astros. Ashbeckjonathan 12:47, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Redirect to List of Houston Astros broadcasters if he is not notible. Ashbeckjonathan 15:39, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Comment' Hey, I don't think that I could do a possibility of creating Francisco Romero (broadcaster), could I? If this is considered deletion, I am going to try creating a new article as Francisco Romero (broadcaster). Ashbeckjonathan 13:31, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

The other comment is that you have other Houston Astros broadcasters, for television, such as play-by-play announcers Bill Brown and Alan Ashby, color commentators Ashby and Geoff Blum and studio hosts Kevin Eschenfelder and Bill Doleman, radio play-by-play announcer Robert Forde who replaced veteran Astros broadcasters Milo Hamilton and other former Astros broadcasters Brett Dolan and Dave Raymond and was the studio host for both the Astros and Royals radio broadcasts before moving up into the Astros radio play-by-play booth. You have other current Houston, non-Astros broadcasters, broadcasters as well. For the Texans, you have preseason announcers Joel Meyers and Spencer Tillman with Bob Allen on the sidelines and Marc Vandemeer with analyst Andre Ware and sideline reporter Rich Lord on the radio. Why is this any big deal for Romero? Even the article fails to reach nobility, there's still has to be a way to get the job done. Ashbeckjonathan 01:52, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Keep as the Spanish-language play-by-play voice of a Major League Baseball team heard on the significant number of stations in the Astros' broadcast network. He crossed the verifiability and notability thresholds as the subject of coverage by multiple reliable third-party sources (like this one and this one). - Dravecky (talk) 09:41, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The first of the above links is a note, not a story, while Romero is mentioned only one time in the second one. Neither of them constitutes significant coverage. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 20:17, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, otherwise, Redirect to List of Houston Astros broadcasters. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 20:17, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I wouldn't go for a redirect. I don't see any issues why this article would be redirected to List of Houston Astros broadcasters. Let's say if you improve an article such as Stu Klitenic, then you would keep it as it happened in Jeff Phelps and Klitenic. In my perspective, I would not be okay with a redirect.

You don't see any issues? The article has no sources that constitute significant coverage, and no one has found any. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 02:16, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If you go with that perspective, that your opinion. I will disagree no matter what your opinion is. This is a fair discussion. WisconsinBoyClevelandRocks228844 (talk) 01:55, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, redirect. No third party sources. Hairhorn (talk) 20:08, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I don't have an opinion on whether it should be redirected or deleted. I disagree with both options. WisconsinBoyClevelandRocks228844 (talk) 21:16, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You've already voted "keep" and "redirect", under two different accounts. Hairhorn (talk) 01:51, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't make a difference. WisconsinBoyClevelandRocks228844 (talk) 02:01, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
