Minor blogger lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance to support "non-trivial" coverage. Appears to fail
WP:BIO and
WP:POLITICIAN.

Comment – Of the 173 hits, most are blog hits that do not meet the criteria in
WP:RS for inclusion. The rest are "trivial" mentions of his name. I am not sure what you mean by the statement, "[A] Popular last name should not be negative factor in deciding GHits/GNEWS."

Most of the hits are from a newspaper, www.saipantribune.com —Preceding

Comment – That is rather impossible since for the search --> "angelo villagomez" saipan <--, there are only 175 Google hits. Regardless, they are trivial in nature.

Delete. Coverage does [not] appear to originate in sources deemed reliable, thus subject does not appear to meet Wikipedia's general notability guidelines.--PinkBull 19:37, 16 June 2010 (UTC)reply
KEEP. You contradict yourself in that comment. If the sources are reliable, the subject meets the guidelines —Preceding

I have now amended my comment consistent with my intention. Thanks for pointing that out.--PinkBull 22:21, 17 June 2010 (UTC)reply
How are New York Times and MSNBC not reliable? —Preceding

Comment – It is not that they are not reliable, it is that the coverage of the individual is lacking. He has a brief quote in the articles about the subject of the articles. That is not coverage of the individual nor does being quoted talking about another subject make him
notable.

To echo Tonyb1's point, Villagomez may have received somewhat significant coverage in sources not deemed reliable, but the coverage he has received in sources deemed reliable (like the NYT and MSNBC) have apparently been nothing more then off-hand mentions. Perhaps an article can be created on
"Friends of the Monument" or on the general environmental situation in the
Northern Mariana Islands. Then, perhaps information on Angelo Villagomez can be merged there, if deemed appropriate.--PinkBull 01:16, 18 June 2010 (UTC)reply
