Severed Fifth (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

"Music project" announced within the past couple weeks which fulfills no criteria of WP:MUSIC. 142 Google hits in the blogosphere [1], but no reliable sources turn up. Since this album has not entered production, let alone released yet, it fails WP:CRYSTAL as well. Article written by a SPA, prod removed with the comment "it's a relevant article" by a second SPA.  RGTraynor  10:49, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would this radio interview, Ars Technica article and the notablity of the person behind the project (Jono Bacon) satisfy the notability requiermnts of the article? Also I'm not an SPA ;) --Ali Davoodifar (talk) 13:18, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't think so, no. Bacon is no more than barely notable (and could stand some scrunity, as to that). The Ars Technica citation is a blogpost, and the radio site is nothing more than Wolverhampton's local FM station, presuming anyone can get that link to work. Certainly you have to get pretty overwhelming to bypass WP:CRYSTAL, and this isn't remotely it. (As far as being a SPA goes, this article represents all your edits within the last year, and you only have had a half dozen other edits total. I'd likewise be curious as to who User:Erky38 is, whose removal of the prod tag represents his sole Wikipedia edit.)  RGTraynor  14:10, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've also done edits without loging in. The point is I've not created an account just to make this entry. I've been around for while simply because I like wikipedia and what it stands for.

I would think if having a musical entry in his own page is a notable addition so should a project that relates to that. (Radio link fixed) --Ali Davoodifar (talk) 14:21, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Notability is not inherited. Russian Textiles (talk) 16:52, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion: As the chap's own project, perhaps Severed Fifth could be merged with Jono Bacon under the Music header, at least for the time being? --Dave the Rave (DTR)talk 15:38, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong delete, massively non-notable project, not to mention unexceptional as an artist independent of the record industry trying to distribute himself has been done a million times already anyway. The only reason it's getting treated as novel, i suspect, is because of this man Bacon's crowd aren't particularly familiar with the topic and because he's decided to write a future article about it. tomasz. 13:03, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Beyond that, there's a basic premise involved: that new creative works, no matter how prominent the artist, just don't qualify per WP:MUSIC unless there are confirmed release dates in the "near future" and backed by multiple reliable sources.  RGTraynor  18:03, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
