Zongora[edit]

Unsourced article. Web searches almost always return Hungarian information about pianos. ««« SOME GADGET GEEK »»» (talk) 15:30, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The reference, which is cited, is http://www.eliznik.org.uk/RomaniaMusic/zongora.htm. Yes, more sourcing would be good, but in 2006 when I wrote this our standards were looser. As far as I know, that is not a reason for deletion. - Jmabel | Talk 16:26, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If someone has time to work on this, here is another reference: http://www.virtualmuseum.ca/edu/ViewLoitLo.do;jsessionid=A1AB194299586F5B8C751D8A9E83150A?method=preview&lang=EN&id=11450. - Jmabel | Talk 16:29, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per nom মাখামাখি (talk) 13:59, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't make sense – the nominator wants to delete the article, not keep it. Richard3120 (talk) 19:21, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Easily sourced with just English language sources, now meets WP:GNG. Plenty more sources in Romanian, Hungarian, and German. The trick is to add qualifiers to Zongora, see alt. searches above. The article was not unsourced when it was nominated for deletion. An external link is also a source. Sam Sailor 22:13, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: there's no doubt this instrument exists and has been mentioned in a variety of reliable sources. Probably needs someone proficient in a variety of European languages to be able to improve the article, but that's not a reason for deletion. Richard3120 (talk) 17:34, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
