[edit] Venners Nærhet
Song was an entry in a competition, but that seems insufficient to claim notability. HeirloomGardener 03:17, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: To be more precise, the article says that it was "the Norwegian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1989". Yes, that makes a difference, although it may not be obvious to an American. Pharamond 07:35, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Keep An entry in Eurovision is inherently notable. (and I'm an American :)) DarkAudit 13:07, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Strong keep (full disclosure, I wrote the article). To enter Eurovision, the song needed to win the Melodi Grand Prix, which is a nation-wide competition in a comparatively large country (Norway). Having done that, it was then performed publicly at the largest competitive music festival in the world. That would seem to make it notable. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 05:57, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- OK, now I understand that this isn't just any music competition, but is rather like the "olympics for music". I will withdraw my nomination for AfD. HeirloomGardener 15:16, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
