Keep. The band is highly notable. According to the notability guidelines for music, "if the musician or ensemble that recorded an album is considered notable, then officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia." That said, it's a bit late in my part of the world, so I'll see what I can find by way of sources later. We need to be careful to avoid systemic bias, and sources in other languages can sometimes be difficult to locate. Even if additional sources cannot be located to expand the article, as the deletion policy notes, "Sometimes an unsuitable article may have a title that would make a useful redirect. In these cases, deletion is not required; any user can boldly redirect to another article. If the change is disputed, an attempt should be made on the talk page to reach a consensus before restoring the redirect." This band's album titles are valid search terms, and whether the album meets WP:MUSIC or not deletion is inappropriate. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 03:40, 1 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep How is an album celebrating 25 years of career not notable, this band had played for hundreds of thousands of people, has 8 gold discs, a movie, an Ariel Award, sadly this was the only source of notability for US media i could find as of now http://www.billboard.com/#/album/el-tri/un-cuarto-de-siglo/186839; If i`m not mistaken if the band is notable, the albums are notable besides.... there are articles about Croatian band`s albums and Singapore`s singers albums, those are way less notable, and don`t get deleted. I`m sorry to get emotional, but in my country El Tri is like Bob Dylan or Guess Who, omnipresent and eternal. Zidane tribal (talk) 05:02, 1 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - the article could use some more references but that is a reason for expansion, not deletion. --DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:46, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
