wiki isn't for everyone, this person is of limited note and less educational value and totally WP:RS uncited, delete delete delete. Off2riorob (talk) 23:26, 31 December 2010 (UTC) Off2riorob (talk) 23:26, 31 December 2010 (UTC) Sure sounds notable, can we confirm this somehow? (His political views are completely irrelevant here, mind you). -- DIREKTOR  ( TALK ) 19:44, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete All the reliable sources I could find describe Dragan Antic as a 1990s Serbian newspaper editor at Politika, a discredited propagandist who backed the dictator Slobodan Milošević, not a gold record winning musical performer. Some of the sources describe that editor Antic in great depth, and perhaps he's notable.  Is this article a hoax or an attempted whitewash? Or are there two people with the same name?  Or were they two different careers by the same person? Cullen328 (talk) 01:05, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * A Google image search finds a number of record sleeves, so it does look as if the singer by this name is genuine. (No idea on notability though). -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:06, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * "He recorded over 50 EP and LP records and he was awarded with 3 golden and 8 silver records. As a very popular entertainer he had over 3500 concerts around the world but most in Europe and fmr. USSR."
 * Comment. I'm sure that the subject of this article and the journalist are different people. The journalist's full name is Hadji (or Hadzi) Dragan Antic, and none of the sources that I can find about him mention his having been a pop star. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:41, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comments. If we could cite some of the claims he would be notable and there are pictures of quite a few album covers on google, Clearly in need of an expert on 70s Yugoslavian pop music? Off2riorob (talk) 20:52, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
