Does anyone know what's going on with the Spanish Wikipedia? The last two articles I created, of Laxmi_Aggarwal and Maha Al Muneef--women who have been awarded the International Women of Courage Award--have been nominated for speedy deletion as not being encyclopedic. See my talk page <http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usuario_discusi%C3%B3n:Neotarf>. My article on the award itself <http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mujer_coraje> remains untouched, but you can see the only articles that remain as blue links are of Hispanic women.
