Germán Bustos

Extensive research has yielded no sources to verify this subject's notabilty. I have exhaustively gone through all of the programs for the Philadelphia Lyric Opera Company which have been collected and preserved at the Free Library of Philadelphia and I have poured through the archives of both The Philadelphia Bulletin and The Philadelphia Inquirer held in the Urban Archives at Temple University to read the reviews for opera performances by the PLOC. I found that Bustos was a minor performer with the company, playing smaller roles in only two productions with the company. He wasn't even mentioned in the newspaper reviews of the productions. However, he did have lead roles with a number of very minor opera companies in the Philadelphia area, most of them community and or student organizations. Likewise, attempts at finding sources to verify his international appearances (I have access to a number of opera magazine archives and other opera related sources) have yielded nothing. In short, Bustos was a very minor opera singer and in my opinion he fails to meet even one of the 12 requirements for notability listed at Notability (music).

 * Delete Most of Google hits refer to Wikipedia mirrors. I can't find any substantial and reliable sources. Germán Bustos fails the criteria, in my opinion. --Vejvančický (talk) 07:48, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
