 * Keep WP:VAGUEWAVE. Andrew D. (talk) 13:46, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 *  Delete Keep Notability not established by this article.  A lot of the things listed are not usually considered folklore, maybe folk art in some cases but not the same thing. Kitfoxxe (talk) 14:13, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * BTW the articles Folklore, Folk art, and Folk culture could use some work.Kitfoxxe (talk) 14:17, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * And that's WP:JNN + WP:NOEFFORT.  It is quite easy to establish notability – just click on one of the search links above to find a source such as this. Andrew D. (talk) 14:31, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * That paper makes me want to visit Honduras. :-)  Kitfoxxe (talk) 19:54, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * But I think the author of the article needs to exert some effort first.Kitfoxxe (talk) 19:55, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
 * There are about 200 countries in the world, and thousands of ethnic groups. Should WP have an article on the folklore of each? Kitfoxxe (talk) 16:37, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
 * It is our policy that "there is no practical limit to the number of topics Wikipedia can cover". For this reason, I'd expect us to cover more ground than a paper equivalent such as the three volume Celebrating Latino Folklore: An Encyclopedia of Cultural Traditions.  See Folklore by ethnicity‎; Folklore by nationality‎; Folklore by region. Andrew D. (talk) 16:55, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Changed my vote to keep. Topic is clearly notable, no matter how bad and even irrelevant this article is.Kitfoxxe (talk) 18:34, 23 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep. The folklore of any coutnry is notable. There are always enough sources; some are mentioned above.  DGG ( talk ) 02:15, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - Clearly a notable subject. I have to assume the nomination is based on the extreme amount of unsourced content in the article. I'd support aggressive cuts, but I don't think it needs to be deleted. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 21:20, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment, article creator has been indef blocked for disruptive editing - WP:MACHINETRANSLATION from spanish wikipedia, this looks like another one, initial edit states this (although no translate tags on article or talkpage), if kept just wondering who is going to fix it?
