Talk:The Midway State

Untitled
Hello Wikipedia administrators.

Please do not delete the profile for The Midway State as there is documented support that meets and possibly exceeds Wikipedia guidelines.

Wikipedia Guidelines State: "A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, hip hop crew, DJ, musical theatre group, etc.) is notable if it meets any ***** one ***** of the following criteria."

I have found 4 matching criteria, even though the guideline calls for only one. I believe this strongly supports Wikipedia's criteria, as I outline specifically below.

All the following references are also properly referenced within the article.

Thank you for your consideration.

non-trivial published works in reliable and reputable media That is superfluous language and should be removed. There are too many opinion words there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.76.158.149 (talk) 17:00, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
