With 70 unique matches on google [1], is this opera-cruft or noteworthy and encyclopedic information? Where do you draw the line and how? GRider\talk 23:48, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not notable. Megan1967 01:04, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. He's notable enough for Grove (subscription access), so he's notable enough for me. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 02:56, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: I have expanded the page based on the info in Grove. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 03:39, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

- Keep. Significant composer of operetta; the most famous Hungarian composer of operetta in the early 20th century. By the way, Google "Albert Sirmay" (his American name) for a better test of his English-language significance. Antandrus 03:49, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- A Google Search brought up "The Albert Szirmai Award of the Academy of Music". Tell me he's not notable. Keep on this basis. -- Riffsyphon1024 03:52, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Duh, KEEP. What the ----? Since when did GRider and RickK trade logins? —RaD Man (talk) 03:57, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- GRider is nominating all sorts of article in order to make a WP:POINT. Jayjg (talk) 23:47, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. GRider is here to find out where we draw the line and how. I think writing an opera that's performed at a major venue would meet the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Music/Notability_and_Music_Guidelines. Kappa 04:00, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I wondered if opera and other forms of classical were covered in Wiki Project Music guidelines. I now know. The fact he has composed a number of operettas and is mentioned in an authorative source indicates his notability to me. Well done MindSpillage for your work on the article.
