Michel Kostovic[edit]

Non-notable person; fails to meet WP:Music. Previous version of the article contained link to his company web site, so it's likely a product of wikispamming. Duja 16:06, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as non-notable person. Only 17 Google results [1] --TBC^{??? ??? ???} 16:36, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, a pop musician with comparable credits/touring schedule would be undisputedly notable. Classical music performers with lengthy careers are at least as notable as Ewa Sonnet, and Google is not where I'd look for information about classical musicians who retired twenty years ago. If Google was that reliable/determinative, why would anybody need Wikipedia? Monicasdude 22:15, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete on verifiability grounds. If the article is correct, he may well be notable enough. However, it cites no sources and Google comes up with nothing outside Wikipedia and its mirrors. A search of sources including Grove Music and an Australia/New Zealand newspaper index came up short. I would consider voting to keep if we had any verifiable evidence.

Delete per above. Furthermore, whilst an orchestra might be notable it's individual members generally are not unless they have some other claims to notability. --kingboyk 13:26, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
