 * That may be, but right now the article is empty and apparently has been since it's creation. The article will definitely be deleted if no one adds any content. Natalie 03:47, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * It did have content in the previous creation. I've advised him of this and he's asking the admin who deleted it to restore the content. -WarthogDemon 03:52, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * If that's the only problem, I'm an admin and I can restore the content to the user's talk page or something. Natalie 03:53, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * That'd probably be helpful for the creator. -WarthogDemon 03:54, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, it seems like my reasons for "significance" are sound. User:Carlossuarez46 deleted the content and hopefully it can be returned. -Matt510 03:55, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I've pasted the original content to your user talk page. Natalie 03:56, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I appreciate it. What will allow it to be put back on their own page? -Matt510 03:58, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, go for it. Natalie 04:07, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * (out-dent) I have restored it to the way it was before I deleted it; Matt, please add the sources for the claims of notability that you describe above and on my talk page. I won't be deleting it again, some other admin will review whether or not it meets WP:CSD. I'm going to bed. :-)  Carlossuarez46 04:50, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks Carlossuarez46, I have added in quotes from the publications they have been in as well as a like to a site that notes their win in EMP's competition. I believe these were also mentioned in your talk page.  Thanks. -Matt510 07:58, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Promotional and Non-neutral Tone
This article needs to be cleaned up or rewritten to remove opinions/reviews which make the tone of the article non-neutral and promotional. Theshowmecanuck (talk) 14:20, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

References and Notability
I like this band but I'm not sure they meet Wiki's notability standard and so I have placed a tag on the article. Also I have removed this ref note which appears to be invalid. The link provided led to a web page that made no mention of the subject and a search of that web site yielded was also not helpful in finding the proper page. Therefore, I'm posting the ref here in case someone can find a valid page and then the ref can be put back in the article. Thanks.-- — Keithbob • Talk  • 11:35, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It has already been verified. Read through the history of the talk page and you will see all the discussion that was had about "notability". I am going to delete the tag because it has already been settled. Matt510 (talk) 04:56, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
