[edit] Tonika

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

Band does not appear to be notable. Sources lacking, only a handful of relevant Google hits. Borderline POV issues ("Tonika's music was very important to the people of this former Iron Curtain Republic"). Realkyhick 15:45, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I have rewritten the page with further content. Please keep in mind that much of the history surrounding this music was lost at the close of the cold war and it also occurred before the Internet existed. Srtuttle 06:29, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Also, the music video cited has over 10,000 hits on YouTUBE! Srtuttle 06:36, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

You can still cite newspapers, magazines and books without having a link to them. Not being online does not disqualify a source, though a link does help matters. Realkyhick 07:37, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I am puting together some sources and additional content Srtuttle 08:15, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

*Weak keep on the basis of this farewell concert article, the only significant news story I could find in English via Google News Archive. No Google Books results. Presumably there are sources in Bulgarian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dhartung (talk • contribs) 21:42, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak keep on the basis of this farewell concert article, the only significant news story I could find in English via Google News Archive, which strongly suggests passage of WP:BAND. No Google Books results. Presumably there are sources in Bulgarian. (I don't know how the end of the Cold War could have meant the "loss" of sources. It wasn't exactly an era of anarchy. I can see how those sources would not appear online.) --Dhartung | Talk 21:45, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep sources have been provided as requested Fosnez 15:11, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - notable per WP:MUSIC (criteria #4, #5 & #8 - anyone of these makes them notable) (-- Steve Hart 01:10, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
