Proposed deletion removal

After improving the article based on WP:BAND, WP:ORG and WP:Reliable sources (as kindly suggested by -Kudpung กุดผึ้ง), I hereby remove the PROD code. As I understand it, there has been no doubt in regard to whether the choir is important enough globally for a Wikipedia page, only it needed some valid references. I have been supplying those, and was also glad to see others helping out and modifying the article, adding such required references along the way. The page now has 9 references, and counting, and is based on the above requirements. Further improvements on the page are more than welcome, as part of the Wiki spirit. Thanks! --Stdgrand (talk) 05:11, 29 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This article should clearly NOT be deleted for "lack of asserted importance" because it counts as one of the most well known choirs worldwide, with dozens of gold medals won in various choir competitions worldwide (see article) as well as an official "World Champion" title at the Choir Olympics. The choir is Israel's leading choir, and therefore the article should NOT be deleted. The choir was recorded for Steven Spielberg's "Schindler's List" soundtrack and is being considered for further film soundtracks by leading directors and composers. --Stdgrand (talk) 06:13, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article has been proposed for deletion. That means you have 7 days to assert the claims of notability according to the linked criteria. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:37, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, instrumentalist, etc.) may be notable if it meets at least one of the following criteria:

1. Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.

Numerous articles, both on the printed and online media, have been written on the choir throughout the years. An especially known one was written by Israeli music critic Noam Ben Ze'ev, for the Haaretz daily newspaper, available here
Additional articles include a music review by critic Hagay Hitron for Mouse magazine, an article on Local magazine, a short item on NRG newspaper, an article on News1, etc.

2. Has won or been nominated for a major music award

1991 - Wales, England – gold medal

1995 - Budapest, Hungary – gold medal, 1st prize

1996 - Netanya, Israel – gold medal, 1st prize

1997 - Giessen, Germany – gold medal

1998 - Salsemaggiore, Italy – gold medal, 1st prize

2000 - Grado, Italy – two gold medals

2002 - Tolosa, Spain – 1st prize

2003 - Wales, England - third prize in vocal groups competition

2004 - Bremen, Germany ("Choir Olympics") - two gold medals

2006 - Xiamen, China ("Choir Olympics") – gold medal and a 1st prize

2008 - Graz, Austria ("Choir Olympics") – gold medal and the "World Champions" title

2009 - Bratislava, Slovakia – three gold medals

2011 - Wernigerode, Germany - three gold medals

3. Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country

The Schindler's List - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack in which the choir performs (quoted from Wikipedia:) "won the Academy Award and the BAFTA Award for "Best Original Score" and the Grammy Award for "Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture or for Television". It was also nominated for a Golden Globe".

I believe this makes it quite clear. For the record, I am not affiliated with the choir in any way. Thank you. --Stdgrand (talk) 11:11, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately it doesn't make it clear because what makes notability clear for Wikipedia articles is the number and quality of references that must comply with our policy at WP:Reliable sources. You may wish to add the sources you cite to the article.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:53, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reply, friend. Would simply adding reliable sources (based on the policy in question) for the above be okay and keep the page online? I would like to thank you once again for your patience. Although I've been using Wikipedia for many years, I haven't yet made changes or added pages. Your help is appreciated! --Stdgrand (talk) 13:19, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you can find reliable sources that wholly comply with our policy per WP:RS, and WP:BAND and/or WP:ORG, please add them to the article in the references section. You may then remove the PROD notice yourself and this will stop the deletion process. You must do this within the time limit. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:26, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, friend. You sure that would be alright if I remove it myself? I've began adding the most important references (as specified in WP:RS, WP:BAND and WP:ORG) and will continue doing so over the weekend. --Stdgrand (talk) 04:52, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
