Subject fails WP:GNG and both WP:ANYBIO and WP:AUTHOR. The article was created by a single purpose account (Nonitamater), and despite recent changes, it is still heavily reliant on self-published sources, including Alonso's webpage (https://robertalonsopresenta.com) and YouTube.

He appears to be most notable for being the owner of the Daktari Ranch in Venezuela, which already has an article on its own Daktari Ranch affair; any notable content not included already there can be merged, and this article should be deleted per WP:ONEEVENT. Despite writing some books, his works don't appear to have independent coverage or received any award, and after running in a municipality election, he himself admits having received only three votes.

After the Early life section, the article proceeds to include a huge COATRACK of the 2004 and 2014 protests in Venezuela, the aforementioned Daktari Ranch affair and the presidential crisis. Besides that, the only mentions regarding Alonso are only statements and positions.

The only sources that I can find about him are mostly passing mentions. The rest of the reliable sources in the article are about the coatrack events previously mentioned.

It should also be mentioned that one of the images uploaded in Commons by the editor is titled "1993 Caballo apoloosa que murió en Daktari y tuvimos que descuartizarlo para sacarlo 3.jpg" (1993 apoloosa horse that died in Daktari and we had to quarter it to get it out 3.jpg), which suggests that it can have a close connection with the subject and a potential conflict of interest, something of which they have already been warned about in their talk page.

• Comment After filing this AfD I noticed that this biography had already been deleted in 2011 after a PROD expired (Roberto Alonso) for the following reason: "This person is simply a political dissident who was the subject of a single article in a local alternative newsweekly, and thus he fails to meet the basic criteria set forth in WP:Notability (people)". Theses issues remain to this day. --NoonIcarus (talk) 12:28, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Taking a cursory look, it doesn't appear the subject is notable enough. Tame (talk) 10:27, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

• Delete per NoonIcarus. There's not a ton outside of some passing mentions reference-wise. Best, GPL93 (talk) 22:00, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
