Merger

Wikipedia rules state that we should use the most common English transliteration of names for page titles, with the correct transliteration (if possible) mentioned in the entry. Not to mention, in this specific case, 'Lena' was used throughout.

As the transliteration of her name is accepted as Lena by Universal Music and even the group's webpage (which isn't attached to Universal,) the page title shall refer to her as such.

And why do we even call her Elena? Елена is the Russian equivalent of Helen.

Chto ne Hvataet

Just to put this info somewhere, as I'm sure not every single t.A.T.u. fan is aware, Chto ne Hvataet was recorded by Lena (solo) during the Podnebesnaya era. While it was later re-recorded with Julia for Lyudi-Invalidy, it does still count as a song Lena sang solo.

Why "half sister" but "brother"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.254.28.211 (talk • contribs) 06:09, 21 March 2007.

Notability

Yes, she is a member of a notable group. However, as WP:MUSIC makes clear, she is not notable based on that alone. To be individually notable, she must be notable for activity independant of the group. There is currently no evidence of this. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 13:35, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lena was a member of Neposedi (notable Russian children's music group [1]). According WP:MUSIC, members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article. -- Esp rus2 (talk) 13:53, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at Neposedi, I don't see clear evidence of notability other than being the former band of Katina and the other one... - Mdsummermsw (talk) 14:11, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(1) Neposedi was represented at "The Morning Star" ("Утренняя звезда", Russian TV show, which aired on Channel One [2][3]). One of the band's members, Yulia Malinovskaya hosted this show. [4]. (WP:MUSIC #12: Has been the subject of a half hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network).

(2) Sergey Lazarev from Smash!! was also member of Neposedi. (WP:MUSIC #6: Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable). -- Esp rus2 (talk) 13:19, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neposedi is also the former band of Sergey Lazarev Netrat (talk) 15:25, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Entire article is fucked up and feels completely biased.

I am just saying read this bullshit, half of it feels like it was written by a pissed off 12 year old. Crap like homewrecker, bringing her on out of pity. No wonder nobody is allowed to cite this site.
