 * Comment - It looks like a number of these recent nominations have print media reviews. Why do you feel they don’t meet point number 1 of what you cite in your nomination? The reception sections could use some trimming/clean up, but they seem to feature multiple third party reviews. Honest question, as this music is al well outside of my areas of knowledge.

 * User:Sergecross73, the nominator was influenced by the essay by WP:WikiProject Classical Music cited in the AFD rationale above. However, the very stringent notability criteria in WP:WikiProject Classical music/Guidelines does not carry the broad support of wikipedia policy. Further, this guideline section is currently being considered for removal for WP:NPOV concerns, as well as its conflict with the policy at WP:NALBUM. That discussion can be found at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Classical music/Guidelines. Also relevant is this proposal at Wikipedia talk:Notability (music).4meter4 (talk) 02:05, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hmm, yeah, “reviews are not enough” is not a mantra I’ve commonly seen around the project. I think that essay needs to be re-evaluated. It doesn’t gel with the WP:GNG. Sergecross73   msg me  02:31, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, the result has been many many articles brought to AFD which should never have been brought here.4meter4 (talk) 02:39, 21 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep per criteria 1 in WP:NALBUM and WP:GNG. This article is well sourced and clearly meets wikipedia's notability guidelines. It should never have been nominated for deletion based on highly biased essay that isn't in keeping with wikipedia's notability guidelines.4meter4 (talk) 02:10, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per appearing to meet the GNG. Sergecross73   msg me  02:31, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep, meets WP:NALBUM with multiple independent reviews that are included in the article, plus a Grand Prix du Disque win. Coolabahapple (talk) 06:27, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets the criteria of WP:NALBUM. It has multiple reviews and won a prestigious Grand Prix du Disque. The criteria from WikiProject Classical music cited in the nom is merely a WikiProject essay, unlike those at WP:NALBUM which is an official guideline.

 * Keep per WP:NALBUM. The article's COPYVIO issue has now been addressed - brief quotes from reviews will be supplied in due course. The album crossed over into popular culture when one of the lead characters of the TV show Northern Exposure was represented as a von Stade fan: the track "Bailero" was included on the tie-in CD that showcased music used during the series.Niggle1892 (talk) 15:29, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
