No apparent notability. InedibleHulk (talk) 18:28, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your standpoint is incomprehensible. Komár was a well-known singer in Hungary, also called the "Elvis of Hungary".

Google book - about 995 results. -- Norden1990 (talk) 12:56, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I count 24 there, and only five show the search term in the result. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:29, 22 October 2012 (UTC) Several (including Dylan Thomas' "Portrait of the Artist As a Young Dog" and Emile Zola's "Nana") were written before this guy was born.

The Eastern name order is used in Hungary. --Norden1990 (talk) 11:51, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and it's used in the link you provide above. This link shows 24 results. Perhaps Google is "personalizing" or regionalizing our results differently, and that's why you see 995 results. InedibleHulk (talk) 18:34, 22 October 2012 (UTC) In fact, it's only showing 21 for me today. InedibleHulk (talk) 18:36, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Norden1990, it would be better if you could list a few specific sources found by that search with significant coverage of the subject, rather than just link a search. Just now when I looked Google Books gave me 46 hits, so we clearly all see different results. If my Hungarian was better I would be able to evaluate those results properly, although even with my very limited understanding I can see that this book descibes Komár as the "Hungarian Elvis". If you can provide some more such sources then I'm sure we'll be able to keep this. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:38, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just for clarity's sake, my result numbers are how many Google actually listed (for me), not the "About ______ results" indicator. I have no idea how that thing guesses, but it's usually way off, I find. Searching "The Hungarian Elvis" gets me "about 10,400 results". Even after including similar omitted results, I actually get 149 (or about 10,251 fewer than advertised). InedibleHulk (talk) 06:21, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as lacking specific referenced claims of notability. WP:MUSIC tends to be US-centric, so there's some wiggle room, but something is needed. If such claims and references are added to the article, feel free to ping my talk page. Stuartyeates (talk) 04:13, 1 December 2012 (UTC) Stuartyeates (talk) 04:13, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There's plenty of evidence indicating he charted in Hungary (albeit some time ago). A Hungarian-speaking editor would be most helpful here. Faustus37 (talk) 08:06, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
