contested prod. Lacks significant coverage in 3rd party reliable sources RadioFan (talk) 13:19, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletion discussions. —J04n(talk page) 15:58, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Here is one extensive biography from a neutral, third party, WP:RS namely allmusic. Good enough for me. J04n(talk page) 16:21, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Still not what I'd call significant coverage.--RadioFan (talk) 16:36, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Comment. If a 570-word biography in allmusic isn't significant then here is another, and another, and another. J04n(talk page) 16:42, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment the reliability of these sources is not clear. They appear to be blogs and one is in Japanese so its difficult to tell what it is. I'm not finding any hitsin Google News. Finding links is nice but in order to establish notability here, significant coverage in reliable 3rd party sources must be present. --RadioFan (talk) 17:51, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Flag for improvement and leave in the hopes of properly sourcing. (Pretty sure these folk are notable enough for inclusion. JSR and JSRF were both known for their music if I recall.) - BalthCat (talk) 18:23, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep passes WP:BAND if only just... RP459 (talk) 01:42, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep. The multiple video game soundtracks, along with an apparent contribution to the BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad anime series, should satisfy WP:BAND #10. That, combined with the coverage at Allmusic and Pixelsurgeon, is just enough for me to vote keep.  Gongshow ^Talk 19:25, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
