He has had some success, but I couldn't establish that this voice actor passes WP:ENT or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 20:08, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and Mexico. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 20:28, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Because of the independent coverage in reliable sources about him, in La Tercera, El Universal and in a lot of Spanish-language newspapers in various countries at the time of his death. He's also actor. Has given his name to the Lavat Awards (for voice actors), which contributes to his notability.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:15, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Fails GNG and NBIO. Sources in the article and found in BEFORE are OBITs/memorials, database listings/name mentions, nothing that meet WP:IS WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. Nothing above is actuall a source about the subject.  // Timothy :: talk  03:42, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikipedia:Obituaries as sources. (aka WP:OBIT) states: "Obituaries published by high-quality reliable sources are often treated as valuable sources for articles on deceased individuals, since they provide a broad overview of the subject's life." Not to mention the fact that when so many obituaries are published in the media it certainly indicates something about notability. And most of them are (obviously) addressing the (deceased) subject directly (and in depth).-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 10:04, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Clarification. Nothing above is actuall a source about the subject. I am sorry but I am directing other users to the article itself, that I have improved a bit, and where I added sources (including some from the newspapers I only mentioned here by name; and please note that there a lot of them, and that I didn't add them all. The Mubi page is ...about him (and only here to show he is also an actor). And the source about the Lavat Awards states, as whoever who opens the link can verify, in Spanish (roughly/penultimate paragraph): "The Lavat Awards are the most important Awards for voice actors/dubbing in Latin America. They were created in 2019 in honour of José Lavat, one of the most prominent figures in this field in Latin America". I have, I'm afraid, no further comment.-My, oh my!
