Waste of time

 * Weak keep. They clearly fail WP:MUSIC, but I'm not sure whether that guide takes sufficient account of the structures of musical careers outside of major develped nations, and they do appear to have some notability in their own area (besides which, they don't sound too bad!).  I'd welcome input from any Bulgarians who can give us more info. --BrownHairedGirl 07:51, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete fails WP:MUSIC, no prejudice against coverage in another language's Wikipedia, but significance unverifiable for an en: audience. Just zis Guy you know? 12:14, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete non notable, this is not an encyclopedia of garage bands. --Svartalf 15:20, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete In regard to Brownhaired's comment- I talked to a friend with some familarity with Bulgarian music. They agreed that having the official page of a band be in myspace meant about as much as it would for an English speaking band. No opinion on whether this is true for small countries in general. Should probably be discussed at WP:MUSIC, but in this case it is a clear decision. JoshuaZ 15:04, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete The only external link/source is a myspace link definatly indicates it's not notable --Ted87 01:08, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment So apparently the situation is more complicated than I initially realized. After talking to another person who familiar with Bulgarian music, it is weakly plausible that a notable band would work off of a myspace page so it isn't by itself a death strike to notability. However, the use of a myspace page together with other details (the lack of google hits for the band itself, certain musical aspects, the individual's knowledge of Bulgarian music in general) confirm that the band would not meet "any reasonable notability criteria." This friend is going to talk to another person tommorow who has better knowledge of the current Bulgarian scene and will report back however he strongly suspects this won't change matters. He also confirmed that in general our conditions for WP:MUSIC have serious cultural assumptions and would likely rule out genuinely notable bands. JoshuaZ 01:46, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Not even popular in Bulgaria? What shred of notability does it claim here? --Xrblsnggt 03:09, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
