Tagged for notability since 2010. Fails WP:NBAND and WP:GNG. - UtherSRG (talk) 16:53, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. This is why bands shouldn't choose a single dictionary word as a name. Dakrya (Δάκρυα) is the Greek for tears, which means that hits for the band are drowned out by hits for the bodily secretion. Here's a reference: https://progrocks.gr/en/dakrya/ https://www.more.com/music/kyttaro/voices-of-the-mist-festival-vol-2/ https://rockoverdose.gr/dakrya-interview-rockoverdose-gr/ Eastmain (talk • contribs) 17:31, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as well as the Greek sources identified above there are also some English sources AllMusic bio, AllMusic album review, and Metal Storm staff album review so that together there is a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 20:53, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Atlantic306 presents three sources, but the first thing to note is that two of these are from allmusic.com, so these count as one, not two sources. WP:ALLMUSIC shows no consensus on reliability of this source, but in general these appear to be independent secondary and reliable to me. So that is one source. Looking at MetalStorm, it is a 2011 review of this webzine, that does meet the threshhold described here [1] (i.e. staff reviews after 2009). However we are still short of multiple reviews per WP:BAND. I had not !voted on this, as I don't know the subject and I can believe there may well be more information out there, but it has not been presented to date. Per Eastmain, it is a frustrating one to research. But we are not over the line yet. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:53, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
