 * Dear Adakiko,
 * This is not right. Wikipedia is destroying the content of the group Tetine formed by Bruno Verner and Eliete Mejorado in 1995.  Could you please tell me specifically what reliable sources you need?
 * Everything single allbum and information about Tetine is reliable. Please see a list of links below:
 * You can visit their website: www.tetine.net
 * You can see many of their records here: https://slumdunk.kudosrecords.co.uk/artist/2843/tetine
 * You can see their records on discogs: https://www.discogs.com/artist/233685-Tetine
 * You can see an article about TEINE here: https://xlr8r.com/features/tetine-tropical-punk-funk/
 * You can see the connections with important lables such as Soul Jazz Records here https://soundsoftheuniverse.com/sjr/product/tetine-let-your-x-s-be-y-s
 * You can see that Tetine curated the acclaimed compilation The Sexual Life of The Savages - Underground Brazilian Post Punk - see for example this article https://www.popmatters.com/various-sexuallifeofsavages-2496137422.html
 * You can see their conncetions with British Label Mr Bongo. They compiled the acclaimed album Slum Dunk Presents Funk Carioca Mixed By Tetine - please see here: https://www.mrbongo.com/products/slum-dunk-presents-funk-carioca
 * Well there are so many references and sources. I don’t undersrtand why you want to erase so MUCH VALUABLE INFORMATION for researchers, and everyone interested in underground pop culture, subcultures, Brazilian experimental music.
 * Please advice, I don’t want Wikipedia to destroy years of their work. What is needed to be done?
 * Looking forward to hearing from you,

 * Please see Wikipedia's precise definition of reliable sources. Self-created sites (like the record company's) or the band's own sites and social media do not count, regardless of how informative they are. The only reliable source listed above is Pop Matters, but that article does not mention Tetine and only mentions Mejorado and Verner very briefly as curators of a compilation album featuring other musicians. We also need reliable sources about Tetine as an entity in its own right, and not the non-Tetine activities of the two members. Also, a message from the band itself, claiming that their work will be "destroyed" if a Wikipedia article is cleaned up or deleted, shows poor understanding of this site's rules about promotion too. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:19, 12 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete Tetine, significantly clean up Eliete Mejorado and Bruno Verner. These three articles mix up three different histories and are reliant on a lot of repeated text, with a severe shortage of reliable sources all around. Mejorado and Verner both have long careers with various musical projects and their two articles can probably be differentiated and improved with better sources. Meanwhile they have performed as the duo Tetine but that project is practically invisible beyond its own social media promotions and brief listings as being present on some underground compilation albums. I do not doubt their many years of work in, and on behalf of, some very interesting underground Brazilian music. But for Wikipedia's purposes, the underground must rise above esoteric clubs and fanzines, and get noticed by the mainstream music media. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 14:33, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. There is no significant third-party coverage to indicate notability. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 18:19, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
