The result was redirect to Deep Zone Project. Notability, for being at Eurovision Contest, is not for each of the subjets, but for their collaboration. Also all the info about DJ Balthazar is currently already at the taget. Naturally with no prejudice for a later split, should new info arise. - Nabla (talk) 21:44, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] DJ Balthazar
- This edit [1] of the article was copied from [2]. --Peccafly-talk-hist 08:34, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy keep No reason cited for deletion. Also, you just added a link to the Bulgarian Wikipedia yourself. I don't read Bulgarian but it sure looks notable. Notability is certainly asserted. Third, you can't vote in your own discussion. Potatoswatter (talk) 11:19, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

- Keep - They meet WP:MUSIC by winning major competition (they won the opportunity to perform in the Eurovision Song Contest) and are doing an international tour (promotional tour for Eurovision 2008. Source here. StephenBuxton (talk) 11:52, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. The nomination was not clearly stated but valid: there was an obvious copyvio issue here. The material pasted from [3] was definitely copyrighted. At the very bottom of the page there is a note "Copyright DJBalthazar.com. All rights reserved". Now the copyvio stuff has been removed and the article is a stab. However, the subject appears to fail WP:MUSIC. The band itself, Deep Zone, meets WP:MUSIC and is notable. However, WP:MUSIC specifically states: "Members of notable bands are not given individual articles unless they have demonstrated notability for activity independent of the band". There is no evidence of such independent notability presented here. If such evidence is found, the article can be kept. Nsk92 (talk) 15:52, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- Copyvio is reason to revert, not delete, which nom had already done. DJ clearly not in band. Potatoswatter (talk) 21:47, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

- comment Are you sure DJ Balthazar is a member of the band Deep Zone? Looking at all the links I have seen, it appears that DJ is a collaborator with the band for this venture. As such, he appears to meet the same notability requirements that the band met to earn an article. StephenBuxton (talk) 16:21, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
