Risoterapia creativa

Forgive me if I'm incorrect on anything, but my Spanish isn't amazing, and this article is in Spanish. From what I can gather, it's about a type of therapy. Seems like WP:OR to me. No references, only some external links. Searches for it often come up with matches for "Risoterapia", but considering this means "laughter therapy", I'm not surprised. Searches for the full name in quotes gives results such as the Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, and blog pages. — GorillaWarfare ^talk 23:53, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - English Wikipedia here... Somebody goofed... Carrite (talk) 15:42, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - True, although non-English articles are usually given a two-week grace period to be translated before being deleted. I'm not sure saying it's not English is a viable deletion criterion for this. — GorillaWarfare ^talk 05:21, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. An article with this title was deleted from the Spanish Wikipedia on 4 September, but the log entry doesn't contain a reason. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:30, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The English name for this appears to be "laughter yoga", a therapy claimed to have been developed by one Erika Ruiz, and seemingly marketed in the US by Madan Kataria. These Google News archive and Google Books results seem to demonstrate notability, but the article seems to me, with my basic Spanish, to be written in a very promotional style and to present fringe theories as facts, so it would probably be better for any article on the topic to be written from scratch rather than translated from this one.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Redirect to Laughter Yoga, I should have looked for that first before trying to fix this one. Oh well. There you go, article already exists. Silver seren^C 17:07, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - My Spanish is by no means phenomenal, but I feel like Risoterapia creativa is almost like a business name or something. It seems unlikely that someone would enter Risoterapia creativa into the search box. Risoterapia, perhaps, but I'm not sure about this second one. I could be entirely wrong though. I hope this doesn't come off that I'm arguing against redirecting, as I'm certainly not opposed to it, but I'm just curious if it would be a valid choice. — GorillaWarfare ^talk 00:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
