Zero sources provided, hard to determine any claims that he was relevant based on google searches. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought more people should have a look. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 13:53, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: I tried searching with a few alternate spellings and think there's enough here to qualify for notability. This profile at Radio Free Europe calls him "one of the Turkmen nation's greatest sons." This guidebook describes him as Turkmenistan's most famous composer; the same claim is made in this French book. This is a profile at the Turkmenistan government official website, and there's another lengthy feature in "Turkmenistan Analytic" magazine (though I'll admit the latter isn't on my regular browsing list; it appears to be registered locally as a newspaper but I can't speak to its compliance with WP:RS.
 * I'd like to see better sources than these but I suspect we'll need a Russian speaker to get them. As it stands I think these are adequate to demonstrate notability and to source a stub. I'm going to add some references from the books and RFE to the article. Gonzonoir (talk) 14:25, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
