Vienna Residence Orchestra

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject fails WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. This was created by an SPA and translated from the German-language version. Some of the citations (since removed) are from WRO itself and the others look like press releases to me. I couldn't find significant coverage in independent sources. Most of what's out there are tourism websites, self-published stuff, or mere mentions. I'm pretty sure this article is purely meant for promotional purposes.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep on the basis of international tours, these recordings held by libraries, and German-language references. See the "find sources" above. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:19, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
 * See also the significantly longer German article at de:Wiener Residenzorchester which includes information on international tours. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:26, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
 * The longer article seems to have more promotional material. The fact that the group has toured or libraries have recordings are included in NBAND. Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 17:22, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Tours are point 4 of WP:NBAND ("Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country.") Eastmain (talk • contribs) 01:00, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - meets WP:BAND now that updates have been made by Eastmain. Jmertel23 (talk) 14:01, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * How do you figure? The group hasn't charted, didn't win a Grammy, etc. I don't see how you think this group is notable. Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 17:22, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
 * "Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country" as per WP:BAND. Jmertel23 (talk) 12:35, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep Subject passes WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. Multiple independent WP:RS mention the orchestra. Greenshed (talk) 23:45, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets NCORP and GNG with enough coverage in reliable sources. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs ) ~ 12:32, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes GNG.  CASSIOPEIA(<b style="#0000FF">talk</b>) 14:07, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
