Tagged for notability since 2010. Fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:07, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Older topics like this are harder to source given pre-internet sourcing, doubly so Azerbaijani pre-internet sourcing. That said a blog post from a now defunct blog from 2008 probably isn't enough. On a topic like this (pre-internet) I would be happy to recommend keep with at least 1 reasonable source of any kind but right now I couldn't call for keep.

• Delete. The text has been up since 2010 without any improvement in sourcing. The lack of sources in even the subject's native-language Wikipedia is telling. This is no more than a fan's page about a non-notable artist. -The Gnome (talk) 20:17, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I disagree with the respected @The Gnome that the artist is non-notable; however, the article is in a disastrous condition. Someone has to give it a new life with the proper content and sourcing.

Though a negative (my "no sourcing") is rather difficult to formally prove, it is trivially easy to disprove. All one needs is the proferring of sources. Simple assertions "this is notable" won't do. -The Gnome (talk) 11:01, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - or perhaps draftify? I can't find anything, but maybe the sources are not in English. It would be nice if someone found something in a non-English language which met the GNG - and whilst I accept that there has been a lot of time for someone to do that, I'm open to draftify for a while to give another try.
