[edit] Curt Close

Curt Close (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

fails WP:MUSIC, he has worked with people who have worked with famous people, apparently has 2 albums but nothing is known about whether they have sold, he was to be the star of some show that never opened, seems a bit thin. He's from Belgium but there are no interwiki links to either a nl: or fr: article about him. Carlossuarez46 17:52, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak keep: Found information regarding his works, however, most are in another language. At the very least, someone needs to introduce references to the article and expand upon it. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 19:41, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - without sourcing fails WP:V. BlueValour 23:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. The article was copied from fr:Curt Close. It was translated after a request at Wikipedia:Translation. Like Seicer pointed out, a Google search points to some sources, but they are in another language. He might be well-known in Belgium/France -- he has featured in top charts[1][2] utcursch | talk 13:39, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, I guess. Utcursch located the French article and I added the interwiki link. Having an article on another wiki and at least one top 40 hit on the French charts creates a sufficient presumption of notability, I think. A French speaker(s) needs to look at the sources to be sure, but I think it's premature to delete.--Kubigula (talk) 21:49, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless notability is proven in the article. Finding proof of notability doesn't mean anything unless it's in the article itself! →EdGl 02:42, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
