ZakZak is a web information site owned by Sankei, one of the major news and media conglomerates, but I am not sure if all the articles there fulfill the requirements of independent RS. What concerns me is that DPG does not have anything on Oricon, which means they've never charted or had TV appearances of note, and that the group seems to be on hiatus. I tend to think that a group that has only had two singles, neither of which has charted, and that may never have another single, does not deserve a Wikipedia page.

* Neutral for now, but leaning to delete pending confirmation of ZakZak as a reliable source. My search fails to find enough reliable coverage in either English or Japanese, just sites that list their music. The fact that none of their music ever charted doesn't help either. Unless ZakZak is determined to be a reliable source, I just can't see this group having an article. I like a number of J-POP groups and duos, and I know how hard it can be to write articles for them without reliable sources, but unfortunately this is the case for Dance Pop Girls. If ZakZak is confirmed to be reliable, I'll change my !vote to keep. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:52, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
* Comment. The group doesn't appear to have a Japanese Wikipedia article. So much for notability. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:55, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
