Esperanto music
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unsourced since 2007. Most of the acts listed are redlinked and likely not notable (in fact, at least two were deleted just a couple weeks ago). Last AFD was split 50/50 between keeping and merging, but I find no sources discussing the concept of Esperanto music as a whole — just ones discussing individual works at best.

 * Speedy close. The previous AFD was closed as "no consensus" less than 24 hours ago.  Reopening it now in the absence of an overwhelming reason appears to be disruptive.  Cusop Dingle (talk) 19:35, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Pedantic much? If the last one were closed as keep, but the last one was no consensus so I see no reason not to relist. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:13, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I see nothing wrong with this nomination. WP:KEEP is only applicable to nominations "with the same arguments immediately after they were strongly rejected in a recently closed deletion discussion", which isn't the case here. My opinion on the article in question will follow shortly. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 20:23, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * What I see is an editor who relists an article within a day of not getting the result he wanted, without mentioning that rather relevant fact, and without giving any reason why the previous result should be revisited. Cusop Dingle (talk) 20:36, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I would like to assume that TenPoundHammer would just like a more decisive community consensus on the issue (and the previous AfD is visible enough on this page). If an admin comes across this and thinks differently, I'd understand & accept a procedural close, but I can't see any reason not to continue a discussion which did not reach a consensus.

 * Redirect to Esperanto culture - It is certainly true that there are some notable Esperanto artists; however, I am yet to see any sources dedicated to the notion of Esperanto music itself, which would be necessary for a full article. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 20:37, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep or redirect to Esperanto culture depending on whether sufficient material can be found during normal editing. Clearly a viable article topic one day if not today.  Cusop Dingle (talk) 20:43, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
