[1] Unreferenced article tagged for references for over a year. Marginally notable/ non-notable BLP with no references, no hits on a Google news search. Without reliable third party references we will be unable to maintain this article to the high quality standards demanded by BLP. Avruch T 21:43, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Fails WP:BLP and no real substantial evidence of notability anyhow. coccyx bloccyx(toccyx) 21:46, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Amazon lists several albums, including Fonaxe Me, released on Columbia Records and Ena Psema Gia to Telos on Sony Records. Multiple releases on major labels satisfies WP:MUSIC. I suspect that a search for the Greek spelling of his name would yield more results, but Greek is, um, Greek to me. Pburka (talk) 00:13, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, he's a notable musician per WP:MUSIC. Has released two or more albums on a major label. A stub can be made from the information at AllMusic[2]. --Pixelface (talk) 09:55, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The link to AllMusic comes up empty for me... I'm not sure I agree with "two albums on a major label" qualifies someone for notability, but it is after all a guideline and not a policy. What are the chances of this becoming any more than an unreferenced stub? Because no actual references appear to have been found for this person... Avruch T 03:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The link to AllMusic comes up blank for me as well. Just a black and white thumbnail with no biographical information whatsoever. I tried to view the link with both Internet Explorer and Firefox so I don't think it was a browser issue. coccyx bloccyx(toccyx) 18:01, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep As a greek i know him and he's a well known artist in greece. If you search in greek you'll soon come up with many results.Sergiogr (talk) 21:05, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep But what does "involved in the Eurovision Song Contest" mean? Could the author be more specific? Pel thal (talk) 13:07, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
