List of best-selling Greek artists

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

A former editor of this page myself, I have come realized that it fails most wikipedia guidelines. The sourced numbers currently present are often attempted to be updated without a new source being provided, while a majority of the entries have no sources at all. It is near impossible to find a source for the remaining entries; I believe most are calculated by counting certifications. I'm tired of babysitting numbers that I cannot verify.

 * AfD is not cleanup. DGG (talk) 01:59, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure where I asked for cleanup? I am trying to delete this article. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 02:04, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Is it possible to source all of the information at all? If it is, then deletion isn't the answer. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 02:14, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I've been searching for over a year, that is where the current sources came from, it used to have none at all. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 02:41, 30 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete--AfD is also not the place to find sources for what may be imaginary numbers. Look at the note at the bottom: "Note – Numbers may not be accurate." In the state that it is in right now, this article needs to be deleted. Drmies (talk) 02:29, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Like I said, I used to edit the page, I know I made some of them up through counting certification, but now that I'm experienced, I've learned about a thing called original research. btw, I added that note a few months ago. Grk1011/Stephen (talk) 02:41, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hahaha, I should have looked that up--I had a feeling that might be the case. Drmies (talk) 03:17, 30 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment. I have no opinion as to whether to keep or delete, but if this is kept it needs to be renamed - I was expecting an article about visual artists, which is what is usually meant by the unqualified word "artist". Phil Bridger (talk) 20:27, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Most of these seem to be unsourceable, or at the very least, impossible to maintain. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 02:30, 4 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete: I support this deletion for many of the aforementioned reasons. Imperatore (talk) 22:33, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
