[edit] Electrocutango

Electrocutango (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

I rejected the speedy A7 on grounds of the mentioned award. Procedural nom, I haven't done any research on it yet Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 09:42, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Reject deletion; support article's presence. Electrocutango is known among dancers of tango nuevo... Binksternet (talk) 11:14, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Comment some of the Norweigan hits look like reviews and semi-professional based on format. Can't read the language. Can't verify the award in English ghits. Anyone know a Norwegian reading editor? TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 02:57, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I am Norwegian: the reviews are good. The band/album is great and widely used, and considered to be in line with Gotan Project and Bajofondo - it definitely needs a Wikip article. It could be better, but I haven't had time to do more for now. If your deletion policy is as strict as Martijn Hoekstra suggests here, The Beatles and Elvis will be the only musicians to have pages here...—Preceding unsigned comment added by Ambivaline (talk • contribs)

You may have misinterpreted my comments. The article was tagged for speedy deletion, which I believed was not valid, if only because of the mentioned award. I listed the article here so discussion could take place, and so far we have two people who support keeping it, and none that are arguing for deletion.

• ETA: no article on the Norwegian Wikipedia, but it's mentioned here and in an article on the founder. No language translator could help with it, however. TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 11:49, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - no reliable sources. I'll change my mind if such can be found an referenced. Bearian (talk) 22:19, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

• Keep... They've been tapped by Putumayo World Music for a compilation of tango around the world. That's Starbucks-level exposure. Binksternet (talk) 00:58, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
