• Delete as per nom. 22 G-hits. --Nishkid64 23:41, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep or merge entertainer who had a national audience and was undoubtably the subject of multiple non-trivial coverage. Also helps to combat systemic bias such as that caused by using the google test on people from Kazakhstan, and not even using the right script. Kappa 05:43, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment: Well he has 1110 googles on the Cyrillic version of his name, which is "a bit" more than the 106 for (Kazakh?) Мақпал Исабекова, but far less than the ... 37,800 for (Russian?) "Макпал Исабекова". So you are right, Google is dangerous to use here. However, I still think that those who did not finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd will be fast forgotten.--Pan Gerwazy 19:23, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Not notable. Change to neutral. I doubt the article can be kept, but if "merge" means putting this info on the Kazakh Idols page, I have no problem with that. --Pan Gerwazy 20:49, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
