Vanity for a defunct never-was band. Rick'''K 22:55, Jul 7, 2004 (UTC)
 * Seems to get a lot of Googles, but how notable were they? Rick Straka on foxnews.com uses the term.  Might this be more useful as a redirect? - Lucky 6.9 23:24, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * keep - Well I made this one and I have absolutely nothing to do with the band so the vanity claim fails. Easily one of the best garage rock bands of the 90s and are globally available.  So the Never was claim also fails.  If there's other entries for The Obvlians (although I suspect it would be spelt differently) then The Oblivians (band) is fine. --Iscariot 01:04, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)


 * Keep: Absolutely a real band.  There was also, though, I believe, a band called the Oblivions from, I think, the 60's -- a Nuggets type of thing (or was it a made-up cartoon band?).  Anyway, this one is real. Geogre 00:26, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. 8000 hits for just Oblivians, (w/out 'the') which is probably where the page should be moved to, based on that, plus the AMG page, and the band's web site . Had material from a 1994 live show released in 2003, which seems decent longevity. Niteowlneils 02:57, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Real. Jgm 17:54, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
