Delete Fails WP:N and WP:RS. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 18:42, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete In addition to the above reasoning I will add WP:ADVERT and WP:CRYSTAL. And that is ignoring the WP:NPOV which is not grounds for deletion. I do not think Wikipedia is the place for press releases. Change to Keep per Tree Biting Conspiracy's updates Mstuczynski (talk) 19:07, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong keep. Original article was poorly written and horribly POV, but I've cleaned up the article and added reliable sources, so it should be better now.--TBC!?! 21:15, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - improvements from User:Tree Biting Conspiracy demonstrate notability; the lack of an album being mentioned is kind of odd, nor does AMG mention any, but I certainly think the non-trivial sources are good enough for this to be kept until such albums are released.

• Keep, good job TBC! TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 17:58, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Nice work TBC, but a search on Billboard doesn't turn up a charted single, so fails WP:MUSIC in that regard, and there's only a tiny blurb of a mention on AMG, so still fails WP:N IMO in that regard. ArcAngel (talk) 20:35, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I may be incorrect here, but as far as I know they only have to qualify under one of the WP:MUSIC criteria. It looks to me like they qualify under #1 and #10. #10 being acceptable as it is not the sole claim to notability. Mstuczynski (talk) 01:29, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, as the references cited in Chester_French#Notes_and_references provide sufficient evidence of coverage in third-party reliable sources to establish a presumption of this band's notability per the general notability guideline. John254 16:29, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
