Article created by an SPA which contains a lot of biographical detail not found anywhere on the internet suggesting a personal relationship with the subject. The Boomerang Deportivo club cited as a reference may well be an authentic club, but Palacio happens to be its secretary, so it's not an independent source. This article from a local government website seems to be as close as I can get to a reliable source. I certainly don't want to give the impression that I am prejudiced against biographies about boomerang throwers or that Mr. Palacio is not one of its leading exponents, but this fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTCRIT.

- Delete - I don't speak Spanish but it doesn't appear that the sources coming from a simple search are about this Alejandro Palacio, thus lacking notability. Meatsgains (talk) 02:07, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
