Dna (Greek musical collective)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Another orphan with no sources, zero notability and a long list of exaggerated claims. Deletion is the only solution. Glucken123 (talk) 15:42, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Procedural Keep - No evidence that WP:BEFORE was followed and good evidence that it probably wasn't as this was part of a mass-nomination of dozens of articles about Greek culture over the course of a hour. FOARP (talk) 15:56, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete This article is not an orphan, it has links from at least three film articles, but there does not immediately appear to be much coverage of the DNA group. For example it is not mentioned at all in the seminal work Paradosiaká: Music, Meaning and Identity in Modern Greece by Eleni Kallimopoulou, although many groups of this period are, but that may not be DNA's style of music. They have not won any major awards, and in fact their nominations have only been in quasi-notable at best competitions. I find passing listing of them in film descriptions, like here. I find mention of them in related websites, blogs, imdb, youtube, music vendors and other such non-RS sites.  For those searching in Greek, the two gentlemen are Μιχάλης Νιβολιανίτης and Αλέξανδρος Χρηστάρας.  There is no article on this group in the Greek Wikipedia.  So in conclusion they lack coverage and hence fail WP:GNG.  --Bejnar (talk) 23:05, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete From their own label website it seems to be a small record label related to this "collective" (if there is an actual collective); so, the article looks to me an indirect promo piece, since there is lack of sources on them. ǁ ǁǁ ǁ Chalk19 (talk) 08:24, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * PS. Note that the article appears to be the product of users with COI: account Bestiale24, account Musicdrama, and JohannesAugustin (= Vassilis Mazomenos). ǁ ǁǁ ǁ Chalk19 (talk) 08:24, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
