After seven years article still has no meaningful reverences to non-trivial coverage in reliable, independent sources. Failing the appearance of this, I propose it be deleted. KDS 4444 Talk  15:22, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

 * This is actually your best bet on your crusade. There are indeed not many independent non-russian sources. They are mentioned in "The Routledge Handbook of World Englishes" as an example for script-mixing, which suggests that they are notable. Their guitar manufactorer lists them as a reference. IMHO There are far-less notable bands on Wikipedia. Arved (talk) 12:05, 15 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Hm. Not totally certain what the "crusade" comment there means.  If it means that I recently nominated several articles on Russia rock bands for deletion, then I don't dispute this.  If you think I did so carelessly or in error, I welcome more of an explanation.  I am not convinced, however, that the defense put forth above qualifies this particular band as notable— a listing in a handbook (... of "Englishes", though I do not know what that means...) does not sound like it constitutes significant coverage (see WP:TRIVIAL); likewise, being listed as a reference by a guitar manufacturer doesn't sound like it's going  to qualify either.  We don't need "independent non-russian sources", we need significant coverage in independent, reliable, verifiable sources in any language in order to retain this piece as a standalone article.  That other less-notable bands have articles has no bearing here (see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, yes?).  KDS 4444  Talk  23:57, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
