Humanitarian Cherry Blossoms

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Procedural nomination to stop editors from edit warring over whether it should be in draft space. The sources in the article are nowhere near WP:GNG. It doesn't look like there's any coverage in English, and I was able to find some trivial coverage in Japanese. I wasn't able to search in Lithuanian, which is another language that may have coverage. signed,Rosguill talk 07:12, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Draftify until ready for main space. --Slashme (talk) 09:18, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete non notable opera. Chiune Sugihara is notable and this play is not. In addition, there is no significant coverage in Lithuanian language aside from some mentions about the opera's playing date and links to ticket websites to see the play. – Sabbatino (talk) 11:19, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I've cleaned it up and found a couple of sources, but not nearly enough to establish notability. As Sabbatino, says, they are basically announcements of performances—no reviews or even background stories. At most, a brief mention could be made in the legacy section of Chiune Sugihara (the opera's protagonist). I'm not sure, its worth draftiying unless there is a significant chance of finding further sources which could establish notability. I sincerely doubt it. Incidentally, there have been two other earlier operas based on Chiune Sugihara, an equally non-notable one in English called Incident in Lithuania (2006) and a somewhat more notable one composed by Toshi Ichiyanagi (2006) . There was also the musical Sempo, composed by Miyuki Nakajima (2008)  . Leaving the article as a redirect to Chiune Sugihara is also a non-starter, because it is very unclear what the actual English title is. Voceditenore (talk) 10:02, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
