Arcaño y sus Maravillas

Although I have no doubt that Google doesn't have complete access to Cuban news sources, there is precious little that asserts any notability for this band according to WP:Music. Many of the links are to music downloads and there doesn't appear to have been much of any 3p coverage. Travellingcari (talk) 02:39, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The article is linked by Music of Cuba and elsewhere; it seems like the lack of online source may just be a reflection of the group's age. Judging by Music of Cuba#Habanera, it may have been pretty influential in its heyday (1930s). Jfire (talk) 02:47, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I thought the same as well, that's why I tried to search earlier. Without access to information on the group in its heyday, I'm not sure whether it's encyclopedic. It's been tagged for 9 months, I'd love if it could be improved but I don't know if it's possible. Travellingcari (talk) 03:09, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment since someone removed the tag, this article had been tagged for a lack of notability for nine months if that's a factor at all. Part of what led to my nom was that there had been ample time to work on it, and no one had chosen to and/or been able to find anything. Travellingcari (talk) 16:05, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
