Notable residents - To the guy who keeps listing a local band
Please consult, WP:MUS before adding local bands. A reverse check of your IP places you in the area the band is from, if you are a member of the band I suggest you read this WP:CONFLICT conflict of interest policy discourages self promotion.


 * These are the required things for being notable as a band.


 * 1) Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable.[note 1] you have no demonstrated this, passing mention in a LOCAL newspaper is trivial

* This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries except for the following: o Any reprints of press releases, other publications where the musician or ensemble talks about themselves, and all advertising that mentions the musician or ensemble, including manufacturers' advertising.[note 3] o Works comprising merely trivial coverage, such as articles that simply report performance dates, release information or track listings, or the publications of contact and booking details in directories. what you posted was trivial, it merely mentioned the band was at a battle of the bands concert o Articles in a school or university newspaper (or similar) would generally be considered trivial but should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
