WP:SALAT, some notable Spanish-speaking people does not seem like a well-defined criterion. Extremely incomplete list. There are ~530 million Spanish speakers in the world, this list could potentially contain millions of entries. Broc (talk) 11:48, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Obviously far too broad and vague, not a useful page to be told that someone from Spain speaks Spanish. Reywas92^Talk 15:15, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Apart from the objections already raised (with which I agree) the article doesn't define Spanish-speaking people: does it just mean people with Spanish as their mother-tongue? Or people whose home language is Spanish? Something else? I speak Spanish (badly): does that make me a hispanophone? Apart from anything else, it doesn't seem to list notable Spanish-speaking scientists, but there are plenty of those (especially in Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay).
