Also, what happens when a network is based

communication is in, say, Spanish! It's hard for me to imagine how
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clemencia_Rodriguez gets tagged for
'non-notability'. Either someone is misunderstanding things here, or
the criteria is really bizarre. Take a look at the comment by BineMaya
at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Clemencia_Rodriguez in response
to this.
If you want some visibility to this problem, I would (once again)
suggest emailing wikien-l as well - that is, the list specifically for
English Wikipedia.
