Was deprodded without rationale. Only improvement was the addition of a single, non-independent source, currently still the only sourcing for this blp. Searches turned up zero in-depth coverage, so they fail WP:GNG, and nothing in the article suggests that they even approach passing WP:MUSICBIO. Onel5969 TT me 11:40, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Keep as a well-known Armenian singer. The article passes WP:MUSICBIO, as the singer won several competitions and has been a featured subject of a TV network. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfsDXD-0B_M this is one of his huge LIVE concerts.

  • Keep and Expand - truly deserving artist, I watched the video, what an incredible talent, wow. But the article requires expansion and more sources. Google search shows a good number of them. Eric was also one of the 5 Armenian jury members at the [Eurovision 2016 contest], which is also a good qualifying factor to pass WP:MUSICBIO. Fiddler11 03:05, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
