Contested deletion

I do not understand why this article should be 'speedily deleted', as it contains information about a little-known music group. Yes, some of the of it is the same information found on the page Djeli Moussa Diawara; I recognize that. However, that page also refers to this newly created one.

Also, I think I made it pretty clear that this is a NEW article, and is far from complete at this point in time. -- Patheticbliss ( talk) 17:58, 16 July 2012 (UTC) reply

The fact that this is a "little-known music group" answers the question right there. Wikipedia is not here to promote the notability of little-known groups, but instead to document groups (and other subjects) that are already well-known enough so that sufficient independent coverage exists from which to verify the article.

OK. I understand that. I added more information concerning the significance of the article, but if you would rather that I merge it with Djeli Moussa Diawara and redirect Kora Jazz Trio there, I can do that instead.

This is actually the case here. "Well-known"/"Little-known" is relative in these scenarios, I guess. -- Patheticbliss ( talk) 18:38, 16 July 2012 (UTC) reply
