• Delete: "Асем Жакетаева" takes 67 googles. If it were a bit more we could forgive her for coming only fourth.--Pan Gerwazy 20:09, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Searching for arguments to keep some more in, I had a look at those googles and found many were in fact connected to this year's edition of a singing competition in Pavlodar for very young singers. They mention the winners in the past. Zhaketaeva is one of them. So nothing new, unfortunately. Note that if Google gives more hits for the Latin than for the Cyrillic version of the name, that is usually because many Latin googles are from mirror sites. Sorry, cannot find anything "mitigating" here.--Pan Gerwazy 22:10, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
