- Delete Seems like I'm not completely off the wiki-planet after all... Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 03:43, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep Notability was established pretty thoroughly in the last AFD debate. Just because you have not heard of something or do not appreciate its significance does not mean that it is not notable. Does the article need a lot of work? Definitely. But articles that need work should be tagged appropriately (which it has been), not deleted. Misplaced Pages is a work in progress, and if every article that were inadequately sourced were deleted, few quality articles would ever be written. -zorblek (talk) 09:14, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Super Keep!* - These guys are blowing up all around the internet, live as we speak. The act's constituents are all well known from previous South African entertainment incarnations. As a group, Die Antwoord now has several top-end, television quality music videos under their belts as well as a CD released on a decent label. They are known and beloved throughout much of the Commonwealth Empire and the English-speaking world... P.S. I am annoyed that YESTERDAY'S deletion discussion was invalidated only to have this new one appear immediately thereafter. The consensus on yesterday's deletion was heavy on the keep side. I just spent an hour tuning the article up to higher Misplaced Pages standards. Would somebody with authority please declare the matter closed with a KEEP so that we may move on? Thanks. --AStanhope (talk) 16:52, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

- Strong Keep Die Antwoord has enough Google results that they pass a basic sniff test for notability. Half a million Youtube views (for three videos) in 72 hours makes them no less notable than internet memes that have their own Misplaced Pages entry. 74.248.71.72 (talk) 10:11, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep notable in its country and on the way to be a worldwide hit. Grue 10:42, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
