Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Victoria Villarruel
This may well be a difficult one for any admin to call.  A problem with any Argentine political article is the country's revisionist history movement on the right (and left wing).  This has a habit of "reinterpreting" history and also embellishing it with half-truths, lying by omission and just plainly inventing stuff. Revisionist authors are often published in normal print media, making it difficult for wikipedia since we'd normally consider print media with editorial oversight reliable.  However, this isn't the case for these authors, they are often able to express what we classify as  views.  That said, some of what Victoria Villarruel is quoted as saying is true, there were links between terrorists movements and the Peronists that spilled over into the chaotic government of Isabella Peron.  And the awful crimes of the military era tend to overshadow the very real terrorist threat in Argentina that led to the military junta but in no way justify them.  It's also true that the Kirchner regime also protected former terrorists, even awarding state pensions to surviving members of the Condor group that hijacked an airliner on an internal flight.    I don't think the lack of a corresponding article on es.wikipedia is significant, there are a group of editors there that effectively control the Argentine section and tend to push a POV favouring the Peronists.  Looking at this article, Victoria Villarruel has appeared at the Oslo Freedom Forum, there is a pretty good and balanced article on Vice news https://news.vice.com/en_us/article/vb8qzb/activists-fear-the-history-of-argentinas-dirty-war-is-about-to-be-rewritten and there appears enough to satisfy me that Victoria Villarruel meets the requirements of , there is plenty of coverage of her in news articles.  This article is likely to require significant admin oversight as from experience it is likely this will become somewhat of a battleground between competing political factions from Argentina
