Contested PROD with no reasoning provided. The subject fails WP:GNG and is a possible case of WP:NOTMEMORIAL. Many refs are non-WP:RS and all RS coverage is from local media about the subjects death and the criminal proceedings for the drunk driver that killed Nava GPL93 (talk) 17:28, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, is a geographic place named after the subject and was bestowed some prestigious awards. – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 18:03, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Having a stretch of a highway named after you does not automatically confer notability and Nava did not receive any high-level National award (neither listed awards are even state-level as they are from a non-profit for burn victims and a firefighter's advocacy group). The only applicable notability standard that applies is GNG which Nava pretty clearly does not pass. Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:47, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete died before the internet was big, so it's hard to find online sources. I find 5 hits in GNewspapers, mostly just reporting of what happened in local news. Nothing notable. Oaktree b (talk) 19:19, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Given that the only rationale for keeping (that there is a small stretch of a highway named after Nava and that he had received two non-notability lending awards from non-government entities that don't appear to themselves be notable) has been disproven, this discussion should definitely not be closed as a "no consensus" and should either be relisted or be closed as a regular or soft delete.

Delete. No SIGCOV in newspaper archives or anywhere else. The highway stretch renaming clearly cannot save this article. Atchom (talk) 17:20, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
