The result was keep. User:Dennisthe2 asked for reliable sources and was provided by User:Vejvančický who is familiar with the region and also a long standing editor. Taking aside User:Dennisthe2 Delete vote, there's consensus to keep and thereby I'm closing it, since it does not need another relist.

• Hello, I am still working on improving this article but I am not sure how to bring it to a level that it will not be deleted. This composer has large number of musical works many of which have links to websites in Czech language. Can you please help me as to how to improve it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmedraj (talk • contribs) 20:17, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete on the basis of the lack of coverage at this point; sources seem to not meet WP:RS. I'll address the author's query on their talk page. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 06:06, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep I personally consider people listed in this database (Memory of Nations) as notable, but that's just my opinion. Similarly this reliable website mentions him as a composer and political prisoner. He has also an entry at the Czech Music Information Center website, which I think is always a very good proof of notability. Furthermore, there are substantial articles in independent local newspapers [1], [2] and in radio [3]. Of course, he is not Antonín Dvořák, but in my poinion he meets our notability requirements. There is a possibility to create a decent article based of good sources. Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 10:59, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as per the multiple reliable sources coverage identified above including newspapers and radio that show he passes WP:GNG and that there is no need for deletion, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 21:32, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
