Keep Firstly, per
WP:AUTHOR, Hector Martin is notable. His work has been repeatedly reviewed in multiple works. It has been reviewed in nationwide Spanish newspapers, various technical news websites and academic publications. See the third point: "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews."
Secondly, you seem to have been launching a personal attack against Hector Martin on the talk page on the Kiwi Farms Wikipedia page
here. Please don't do that and especially not on Wikipedia. Thanks.

This article is a vanity page. He isn't notable. If he was, this site would be filled with articles like this. Also, the Kiwi Farms article linked ne to this, and I was amazed that his vanity page was allowed to stay up. Him being a liar has nothing to do with me wanting this removed. He's not of any real note enough to have a wiki article. That's the point I'm making, not about him lying about some mentally ill guy faking a suicide.

Oh, and PhotographyEdits is more than likely Hector himself, so, Hi Hector!

Hi KiwiFarmer! This is Hector, your trolling is very transparent, and
PhotographyEdits is *definitely* a sockpuppet of mine even though they have more edits this year than I've ever made since creating my Wikipedia account in 2004. /s

Keep Sourced well enough to get over the wiki-notability bar. A news search finds more that could potentially be added; note that not all publications use the "Cantero" part of his name.

Note that at least based on my understanding of
MOS:PATRONYMIC and
Spanish naming customs, "Martín" is the patronymic and "Cantero" is the matronymic, and the matronymic is generally not used in common names. (However, I don't know much about names, so I may be misunderstanding things here.) --

This is correct. I generally do not use my full name, just "Hector Martin" (without the diacritics), when identifying myself online, even though my legal name is correct in the article title. (In case it wasn't clear, I had nothing to do with the creation of the article nor am I going to try to influence its fate in any way, but I'm happy to answer any questions.)
