As sources the article uses the artist website, the (apparently broken) website of an organization called Ixtlan Industries, and the websites last.fm and Encyclopedia Metallum, which both use user-submitted content. I searched the web for sources (the artist name is written in Latin letters in the Russian language as well according to the website). I've been unable to come up with any reliable source that suggests notability, only with hits for the original Senmuth and blog entries and similar stuff on the article subject. Nothing significant for the original artist name in Latin or Cyrillic letters either. The Encyclopedia Metallum entry states that "Senmuth distributes his own CDs" and is not on a label. I suggest, sadly, deletion for failing WP:MUSICBIO, as this does not pass muster as it is. Hekerui (talk) 18:32, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- strongly oppose - I don't know about Senmuth but Tenochtitlan definetly should be left. See discussion at Russian wikipedia. It's very unique and important project. Hugo.arg (talk) 20:44, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I google-translated your argument and you seem to say that Tenochtitlan has had 500 last.fm listeners, was sold at amazon.com and and is on Encyclopaedia Metallum. On last.fm they have their tracks as free downloads, amazon doesn't actually have their stuff available from what I can tell and Encyclopaedia Metallum uses submitted content but is specialized in metal music and its threshold of inclusion is much lower than that of Wikipedia. The Russian Wiki page doesn't link to reliable sources, unfortunately. Hekerui (talk) 08:33, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Here are all reviews, articles, mostly in independent sources about the project "Tenochtitlan". Hugo.arg (talk) 08:23, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
