The result was delete. After three relists I'm calling this a delete, but a damned weak one. There is only one delete vote other than the OP. But the sole Keep was also a weak vote and predicated on a lets wait and see if there are any Russian sources. A subsequent comment by a Russian speaking editor indicates there are not. Still if someone wants to discuss this drop me a line on my talk page. If not for the weak keep vote I'd call this a soft delete as a de-facto expired Prod.

Over the top promotion for non notable musician. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Sourced to primary and shops. A search found nothing better although my Russian is lacking. duffbeerforme (talk) 02:57, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep: The need to examine Russian-language sources suggests that there may be enough content to justify a keep. Article needs work and is not well-written, but content is not the same as notabiity. I'd hesitate to delete until someone who can read Russian looks at this; I googled the cyrillic name and obtained additional hits, but could not assess content as I cannot read Russian.

Montanabw. Can you point to a few you think might be ok. My searches came up with nothing that seemed good. duffbeerforme (talk) 21:59, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I can't read Russian, but there were some cyrillic entries that didn't look like facebook or wikipedia mirrors. I'm not going to the mat on this one, but I don't want to have a western-bias here and prefer to err on the side of caution at AfD. Perhaps we can locate someone who reads Russian to do a skim.

My search for "Ольга Вирезуб" got zero hits. Without quote got a bunch but Ольга and Вирезуб are both relatively common separately causing those hits. "Ольга Яковлевна Вирезуб" got two pages, all basically wikipedia. None that looked like they might be good. Factiva only came up with a business registration. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:53, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, not one I'm going to the mat on, whatever the consensus becomes, I can live with the outcome. Montanabw^(talk) 02:30, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No sources at all other than wiki clones in English and German. No longer a penguin (talk) 14:16, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – http://www.klassika.info/Komponisten/Virezoub_Olga/index.html is not a Wiki clone; that entry alone convinced our German colleagues to keep her article in August 2008. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 11:32, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A listing is not "Significant coverage" per WP:GNG and I don't see anything on the listing itself to suggest that she passes WP:NMUSIC. All it does is confirm that she does exist and is, in fact, a composer. No longer a penguin (talk) 08:22, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: To allow someone speaking Russian to take part in the discussion

Comment on relisting As duffbeerforme already pointed out, these are no Russian sources to look at (I speak some Russian), a search for her name in Cyrillic brings up nothing at all (except wikipedia) when searching for a full string. When searching for Ольга Вирезуб without quotes, you do indeed get a lot of sources in Cyrillic, but exactly 0 seem to be about her. Olga is a common name, while Virezoub is a fish.
