Ewald Krolis

This is an unfortunate case. This musician clearly existed and released music (just search YouTube or Discogs), but I can find no obviously RS to verify any of the claims in the article—so a WP:V failure at the moment. Closest I got was, which looks like a blog but might be reliable. The article in Dutch has the same source as this one. Sorting this into Netherlands-related discussions even though Krolis was Surinamese in the hopes that some Dutch speakers might be able to evaluate this source.

 * Comment Here's a great source: Weltak, Marcel. Zanger Ewald Krolis maakt zijn faam waar. De Volkskrant. page 14. 1986-02-25, via Delpher 2020-09-15. Very valid towards WP:GNG. Also, here is a passing mention in a quality source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gidonb (talk • contribs)
 * How does look to you? Looks reliable to me—I tried searching google.nl and it picked up something that the English-language Google didn't. (And a serious indicator of notability if Krolis has inspired a tribute band!) Ordinarily I'd want WP:THREE here but I think two refs plus the quasi-reliable blog and the passing mention you cite would be enough for me to withdraw.

 * Keep. Passes the WP:GNG, given the sources that AleatoryPonderings and I found. gidonb (talk) 00:12, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
