The result was keep. Had this not been open for a week I would've speedy kept this myself, Most if not all laptops have a translation option (and if it doesn't then use Google Translator!), There's a few results on Russian Google and I don't even know anything to do with the Russian language!, Anyway BEFORE wasn't exactly followed either so wrapping this up as Keep, (non-admin closure) –Davey2010^Talk 23:50, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable Russian band with no notable members and apparently not a single notable song. References are non-existent, article only has an "External links" section. If there are genuine Russian references, then they need to be found (by someone competent to do so). My own albeit limited investigation (in English) turned up nothing to qualify them as notable by Wikipedia standards. KDS4444^Talk 20:14, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm a little unsure about this, because the band is not totally unknown; I found this (in the article) and this, which are not very detailed, but I suspect that if they have this level of coverage in English, they must have more in Russian. I have not the knowledge to find them, though. Vanamonde93 (talk) 01:41, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The band has made five albums, which indicates notability. Garagepunk66 (talk) 05:37, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep if this can be better improved from the Ukrainian Wiki. Notifying Wikimandia for Ukrainian analysis. SwisterTwister talk 21:43, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and ugh for the record. Nom has failed WP:BEFORE - You have to look at the interwiki links! The Russian article is clearly referenced with articles in KP etc. If you admit you have a limited ability to do a search then maybe you should not nominate articles for deletion. —Мандичка^YO 😜 22:35, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
