This is an orphan, is poorly written, and I can't find this person on google. Article makes unsubstantiated POV claims such as that this woman is the equal of Nostradamus. If someone can confirm that this person is real, it definitely needs to be cleaned up- none of this article links out, and looks like it was loosely translated from a copyrighted spanish source. Otherwise, it should just be deleted. - DropDeadGorgias (talk) 19:53, Jun 28, 2004 (UTC)

  • I don't get anything on Google, either. The only hits for the name revert to a figure in Hinduism. Patent nonsense? - Lucky 6.9 23:33, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. It's totally fake. The books mentioned return no Google hits with Rukmini's name, and a search on Rukmini only returns references to the Rukmini of Hinduism, and some random people named after her, none of whom are astrologers. Derrick Coetzee 03:01, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Not fake. I remember her being very popular during the seventeen years I lived in Puerto Rico. She was on television, magazines and newspapers there. Send to cleanup for wikyfiyng and NPOV, through. Antonio Nostradame Martin
  • Another mumbo-jumbo maker, but if a locally famous mumbo-jumbo maker, do a thorough clean-up to remove POV puffery. Average Earthman 11:25, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete in either case. Local TV personalities number in the tens of thousands. In Savannah, GA, we had a funny TV weatherman who was a cultural touchpoint for anyone within a 60 mile radius, and yet the transience of his medium means Cap'n Sandy left no lasting documentary effect on the world, and no major events happened because of his funny song. The local astrologer would be along the same lines.

      • Geogre, Puerto Rico is a country|state (although slighly more than half of all Puerto Ricanscall it a "nation" but thats a whole other discusion. Savannah, Georgia, on the other side, is a city. You can't compare Savannah to Puerto Rico, where four million people live at. "Antonio Maried women taker Martin"
  • Delete. Agreed w/ Geogre. Wile E. Heresiarch 06:25, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
    • This needs NPOVing - but if they are famous in Puerto Rico or in other Spanish language media then keep. It's not quite the same as being famous in nowhere - and I, for one, have no idea how popular astrology is in Puerto Rico. Secretlondon 22:24, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
